New Principals
We are proud to announce that three homegrown JPS leaders will be promoted to school principal for the 2024-2025 school year. After gaining experience as a middle school assistant principal at two JPS schools, Bruce Sloan will be promoted to principal of Cardozo Middle School. Stacey Bailey will move from Callaway to assume the top post at Lanier Jr./Sr. High. Dr. Alonda Nicholson will go from assistant principal at Murrah High School to take over the helm as principal of the school.
As part of the Optimizing for Equity Plan, the District reduced its portfolio of schools and retained many capable school principals to lead new school communities.
