From Teacher To Administrator

From+Teacher+To+Administrator

Yanely Luna, Editor-in-Chief

With a new school year come new faces, such as the new assistant principal, Ms. Megan Eaves.

Ms. Eaves came from Moore County, even though she went to Tullahoma High School. She taught ninth grade English at Moore County and worked as an instructional coach for teachers there, as well.

Accepting the job as administrator, Ms. Eaves was fearful that she would not be able to interact with students as much. However, she believes that the position will actually do the opposite. She hopes to impact more students and get to know a larger variety this way.

Ms. Eaves enjoys that she still gets to see students. She states, “So far, I really like that I still get to see students. I was worried that, moving from the classroom to this role that I wouldn’t see students enough…”

She also enjoys the challenge of the job and the change from day to day stating, “I like that I’m not doing the same thing every day.”

As a senior administrator, Ms. Eaves works with the senior class dealing with discipline and counseling. She also works with the English and science departments, and RTI to manage their departments.

Ms. Eaves likes the change of style from Moore County to Coffee County, and she enjoys that the school is larger than her previous one. She says that the larger school has a wider variety of students and teachers.

Ms. Eaves’ goals for her first year here include getting to know everyone and building relationships with students. She hopes to bring new ideas in the future and work with teachers on their projects, such as Project Lit with Mr. Stein.

Ms. Eaves would like the students to know that her door is always open and she is available to talk to students.
