SCE Welcomes Our New AP, Ms. Kristy Newson
Here are some words from our new AP!
A native of Chattanooga, TN, I studied Early Childhood Education at
the University of TN at Chattanooga. I received a Bachelor’s of Science
Degree in Human Ecology (UTC), a Master’s of Education in Reading
(UTC), and a Master’s of Education in Educational Leadership through
Trevecca University. I began my career in education with Hamilton
County Department of Education over 10 years ago. I have taught
2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades at Bess T. Shepherd Elementary. I have
served on the school’s Leadership Team, SWPBS Team, as the
Intermediate Literacy Support Teacher, and have facilitated
professional development for the staff in the area of literacy. During
the 2014-15 school year, I served as the Assistant Principal of Clifton
Hills Elementary.
I enjoy family vacations, whitewater rafting, climbing
waterfalls, snorkeling, and exercising. When I am not
traveling or reinforcing positive behaviors with my 2 year
old Shi Tzu, Ebony, I love taking naps. During the summer I
take a nap every day
