A Fayette County educator has

been named school-level Administrator of the Year by the Georgia Association

of Educators.

Karen Bullock, assistant principal

at Spring Hill Elementary School in Fayetteville, was recognized at Monday

night's Fayette County Board of Education meeting for her achievement.

She has just completed her first year at Spring Hill, but she had been

an assistant principal for more than 12 years and is a 23-year veteran

of the county school system.

Currently in the middle of

a two-year term as president of the Fayette County Association of Educators,

Bullock said she was nominated by that body's executive officers after

Fayette became the second county in the state to approve a non-renewal

policy for new teachers in the wake of changes in teachers' rights resulting

from Gov. Roy Barnes' education reform legislation of the past two years.

Bullock has served on the administration

of Peachtree City Elementary and Brooks Elementary after spending more

than a decade in the classroom.
