Dr. Schwanda Jackson, principal of East Coweta Middle School, has been appointed to the Board of Directors of the National Association of Elementary School Principals (NAESP).
Jackson has been elected to serve as the NAESP Board’s Middle-Level, Minority Director At Large for a three-year term beginning Aug. 1.

Established in 1921, the National Association of Elementary School Principals (www.naesp.org) is the leading national association representing elementary and middle school principals in the United States, Canada, and overseas. NAESP supports principals “as the primary catalysts for creating lasting foundations for learning in their commitment to all children through policy development, advocacy, and resources for effective instructional leadership.”
NAESP honors principals through its National Distinguished Principals program and administers a variety of professional services, including the National Mentor Certification program for principals.
