Hello Springer Families,
I am starting my 28th year in education, all of which have been in Cobb County. I have been a teacher, academic coach, and assistant principal, and I have been a principal for the last 8 years. I started my career in middle school and transitioned to elementary about 22 years ago.
I am a product of Cobb County Schools and can't imagine working and serving anywhere else. My daughter went to King Springs, and Griffin and I live in our KSE community. You will likely see me walking my golden retriever, Cody, around Bennett Woods.
When I am not at school, I either work on my graduate work to complete my dissertation, hang out with my daughter, hike, or I am at a Braves game! I am a huge Braves fan...Go Braves! Last year, I had the thrill of my life as the Braves Honorary Team Captain at one of the games! I can’t wait to see how much we grow as a school in the next 5 years!
With Springer Pride,
Ashley Mize

| This will be my 20th year in education. I have worked in private and public-school settings. This is my third year as an assistant principal at KSE. Before becoming an assistant principal, I spent nine years as an academic coach. My daughter went to Teasley Elementary and Whitefield Academy. She currently attends UGA. Go Dawgs! While not at school, I enjoy tutoring students and helping rising seniors with their college essays. I am looking forward to welcoming new and returning Springers! I look forward to seeing you in the carpool line soon. | This is my 21st year in education and my 3rd year in the Cobb County School District. I have served as a teacher, an academic coach, and an assistant principal/International Baccalaureate Coordinator. I have two children in CCSD schools who are thriving in the best place to teach, lead, and learn. As a family, we have begun to embrace the joys of traveling, with our favorite destination always being Disney. As a first-year assistant principal of KSES, I am honored and privileged to be able to support the students, staff, and families of such an incredible and respected institution. I look forward to getting to know our amazing families better and helping all student meet their full potential. |
