Assistant Principal

Greetings! It is with great enthusiasm and excitement that I write this letter of introduction as the new Assistant Principal of Varnville Elementary School. I am truly honored to have the opportunity to help lead a school with such persevering students, an extremely dedicated staff, and a supportive school community. I feel very fortunate to be part of this school and to support the staff, students, and families.

My experiences span from teaching grades 2nd, 4th, and 5th; serving as an alternative school teacher; technology facilitator; and serving as Assistant Principal for eighteen years. I look forward to utilizing my skills as an educator, leader, and change agent working with you all as our children progress to the next level.

As a life-long learner, I am expecting to discover the uniqueness of VES. Most importantly, ensuring that students are at the center of all school-related decisions. Diversity and inclusiveness are pillars to my personal educational mantra. I am committed to continuous professional growth, ensuring educational equity, and access for all of our students. I am eager to unite my experience, willingness to learn, and child-centered approach in an effort to support both staff and students. Relationships between families, teachers, and administrators are vital to the success of our students and school. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me at 803-943-2376 or JaDunbar@hcsdsc.org.
