Cougar Cartwheels
Cougar Cartwheels for Mrs. Wood, Mrs. Kale and Mrs. Jouanet for being selected to be Common Core ELA Lab Classrooms next year!
Cougar Cartwheels for our new COUGARS, Lisa Jacobi and Michelle Stevens! We are excited that they will be joining our team next year!
Cougar Cartwheels for this entire staff! As I complete my last Cougar Connection, I just want to let you know how much I have learned from each and every one of you. You have taught me how to be a better educator, a better listener, a better leader and most importantly, you have taught me how to be a better person. I will be eternally grateful for the love and support that this community has provided me these last three years. Kemp Elementary is a special place because of the AMAZING hard work and dedication of the entire staff. I hope that our paths will cross again in the future and of course, if you are ever in the Smyrna area, I hope you stop in and say hi!
Cougar Cartwheels for Mrs. Mason for being such an amazing and outstanding principal to work for! I feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to learn and grow from her these last three years. Mrs. Mason is an amazing advocate for all of the students at Kemp Elementary! Her relentless pursuit of consistently doing what is right for each individual student is second to nobody. Kemp Elementary is VERY FORTUNATE to have such a dynamic leader! I will miss working with her on a daily basis because she has made Kemp such a wonderful place to work!
