Ms. Yasontas Burton

Yasontas Burton became Instructional Leader at Lake Elementary in 2021.  Ms. Burton began her career in education in West Palm Beach, Florida as a kindergarten teacher.  She worked there for 4 years before returning  home to work for Jackson Public Schools at Lake Elementary School as a kindergarten teacher.  She served the Lake school community for 14 years as a Kindergarten and First grade teacher, literacy coach and interventionist.  She became Assistant Principal at Johnson Elementary in 2014, where she served for 2 years.  Ms. Burton would continue her career at John Hopkins Elementary, where she served 4 years as Assistant Principal.  

Ms. Burton is a proud JPS graduate from Provine High School. She is  super  excited to be back at Lake in this new capacity.  Her goal is to continue the tradition of great success by ensuring that scholars reach their academic potential and become well-rounded, productive citizens.  At Lake, we make it happen as a TEAM. I am honored to lead this dynamic team of scholars and staff.
