✨ Today’s feature our College and Career Readiness Manager Troy Barnes. - Stop here to learn a little about him ✨

Mr. Barnes is an educator with 34 years of total experience spending his first 14 years as a classroom teacher offering students study in American History, Political Science, Economics, and Government. He also served as a teacher-leader, leading an interdisciplinary, collaborative teacher team. Mr. Barnes served on many curriculum writing teams and school improvement initiatives in his role as a teacher-leader.

Serving as an Assistant Principal in three high schools within his home district, Mr. Barnes lead programs for at-risk student populations, served as a lead academic program scheduler, and increased rigor for students through his “Step Up” initiative.

Mr. Barnes also served for six years as the Principal of Century High School, the Blue-Ribbon school he had previously planned and opened. During his time at Century, educators reformed their practice in assessment and evaluation of student work, creating a new model for teacher-student academic dialogue which resulted in increased student performance across all academic levels.

Mr. Barnes then served as the Supervisor of Advanced Academics for the district. Responsible for the advanced education of highly able learners,’ grades K-12. Mr. Barnes made the program more accessible for all students, reformed identification practices and realigned advanced studies to extend key curricular concepts.

Having a deep belief in the mission of Palmetto Excel, Mr. Barnes seeks to create vocational and academic pathways for students to achieve new credentialing and improve their standing in our workforce.

✨ Mr. Troy, we love having you on our team and thank you for all of the work you do💚✨🌴
