Banks County Middle School Home

Welcome to Banks County Middle School! I am honored and excited to serve as the Principal of BCMS and to continue working with the outstanding students, staff, families, and community that make Banks County such a special place.

As I enter my 25th year in education, I am grateful for the experiences that have prepared me for this role. My career has included 17 years as a physical education teacher at the elementary, middle, and high school levels, seven years as a Head Boys Basketball Coach, and the past seven years serving as Assistant Principal at Banks County Middle School. Throughout my career, I have remained passionate about helping students grow academically,
socially, and personally.

Education has always been an important part of my life. I earned a Bachelor's Degree in Health and Physical Education from the University of Georgia, a Master's Degree in Health Studies from the University of Alabama, and an Education Specialist Degree in Administration and Supervision from Lincoln Memorial University. These experiences have helped shape my belief that every student deserves opportunities to learn, be challenged, and discover their potential.

My family's roots in Banks County schools run deep. My wife is an educator at Banks County Elementary School, and we have been blessed to raise our children in this community. Our daughter is a proud graduate of Banks County High School, and our son is currently continuing his educational journey within the Banks County School System. As both an educator and a parent, I understand the trust families place in our schools each day, and I take that responsibility seriously.

At BCMS, our goal is to provide a positive, engaging, and supportive environment where students are encouraged to work hard, exhibit a great attitude, have fun, and develop disciplined habits and character that will lead to future success. We are committed to maintaining our strong tradition of academic excellence while helping every student grow into a confident, responsible, and caring individual.

I believe the middle school years are some of the most important in a student's educational journey. They are years filled with growth, discovery, and opportunity. With students, families, staff, and the community working together, we can ensure that every child at BCMS is supported, challenged, and prepared for the future.

Thank you for visiting our website and for your continued support of Banks County Middle School. I look forward to an outstanding school year and to continuing the tradition of excellence that makes BCMS a great place to learn and grow.

Go Leopards!
