Hello, East Side Elementary Community!

My name is Ashley Graziano, and I am incredibly excited to join you as the new Assistant Principal. It is an honor to become part of a school with such a strong tradition of excellence and a commitment to nurturing every student’s potential.

I bring with me a Master's degree in Teacher Leadership from Kennesaw State University.  I started my career in Cobb over 16 years ago and had the pleasure of serving as a classroom teacher and most recently as an Instructional Support Specialist. My career has been driven by a passion for creating engaging, inclusive, and supportive learning environments where every child can thrive.

In my role as Assistant Principal, I am dedicated to supporting our students, teachers, and families. I look forward to collaborating with all of you to implement innovative programs, enhance our curriculum, and ensure that each student feels valued, motivated, and equipped for success.

When I’m not at school, I enjoy spending time with my family, including my husband of 20 years, 3 sons (ages 15, 14, & 12), and two doodles. We love to travel, attend concerts, and hangout outside. 

Thank you for welcoming me into the East Side family. I am eager to work with all of you and embark on this exciting journey. Together we can achieve great things!
