Big news at Mt. Carmel Elementary! 🐾 Some teachers are joining us as new faces, and some familiar Wildcats are moving into new positions. Help us welcome our new staff and congratulate others on their new roles.

Mt. Carmel welcome Mrs. Carpenter to the Wildcat Family!

Mrs. Carpenter is a Huntsville native with 13 years of experience in public education. After graduating from the University of Alabama with her bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education, she began her career teaching 2nd and 3rd grades in both the Huntsville City and Madison County School Districts. Most recently, she has spent the past five years serving as a Math Coach at Lynn Fanning Elementary.

During her time as a Math Coach, she partnered with educators to strengthen instructional practices, led professional developments, and worked to cultivate a collaborative culture centered on student achievement. Mrs. Carpenter’s educational philosophy is grounded in the belief that continuous learning is essential for students, for educators, and for school leaders. That conviction led her to pursue her master’s degree in Instructional Leadership from the University of West Alabama and has shaped her commitment to developing and supporting strong teachers and high-performing learning communities.

On the home front, Mrs. Carpenter and her husband are raising two spunky, smart, and beautiful daughters. They enjoy traveling, gardening, and cooking together.

Mrs. Carpenter is extremely proud and excited to begin her journey as a Wildcat! She looks forward to getting to know the Mt. Carmel community as she leads and serves as our Assistant Principal.

Happy summer! Last day of school! We will miss you!
