Greetings Enterprise Families! My name is Teresa Thornton, and I am honored to be the new Assistant Principal at Enterprise Elementary School. I have been an educator and teacher leader for several years in PWCS. During this time, I have served in several leadership roles to support daily instruction, student performance, and staff development. Previously, I was an Administrative Intern at Marumsco Hills Elementary which has helped to prepare me for the role of Assistant Principal.
I have a passion for learning not only for our students but for my personal growth. I have a Bachelor of Science Degree in Early Childhood Education from Delaware State University, a Master of Education in Administration and Supervision from University of Phoenix, and my Reading Specialist Certification through Shenandoah University.
As a school leader, I view leadership and education not only as a career but also as an opportunity to share my philosophy of lifelong learning with students and colleagues. Through supporting our school's vision and mission, and continuous improvement plan, we will continue to achieve student success.
As the Assistant Principal, one of my goals is to inspire and empower others to be leaders, by motivating and supporting them in their efforts, as well as leading by example. My daily responsibilities include supervising and supporting instructional staff and students in all areas of instruction, while providing a safe and welcoming learning environment.
Some fun facts about me, I’m a Dallas Cowboys fan and I enjoy playing volleyball, traveling, decorating, singing karaoke, and spending time with family and friends.
I look forward to building positive relationships and making connections with all students, staff, and families of the Enterprise community!
