We have the best captain steering our ship 🖤❤️

❤️ Starting Year 24… and what a journey it has been.
8 years as a secretary.
8 years as a school counselor.
8 years as an administrator.
All with Mercer County Schools.
When I look at those numbers, I see so much more than 24 years of service. I see progress. Growth. Opportunity. And the power of an education.
I am living proof that where you start does not have to be where you finish. I started as a secretary and just kept learning, growing, going back to school, and believing there was another step I could take.
The experience gained from climbing that ladder has been immeasurable. Every position taught me something I needed for the next one. I know what it feels like to work in the front office, to support children and families through some of their hardest days, and now to lead a school and the incredible people inside it.
That is the picture of progress. ❤️
Education opened doors for me that I once couldn't have imagined, and that's exactly what I want our children to understand: Your beginning does not determine your ending. Get your education. Work hard. Keep growing. Dream bigger. You can become more than you ever imagined.
Here’s to Year 24 — still learning, still growing, and still believing with my whole heart in the power of public education. ❤️🏴‍☠️

Thanks goes out to Rylees Sunshine Foundation!!!!! We love our community partners. We are blessed.

As a school family, we believe every child deserves to walk through our doors on the first day feeling confident, comfortable, and ready to learn.
Thanks to the generosity of our community and our amazing local partners, we're working together to help provide school clothing and other essential items for students who need them.
If your child was unable to receive a clothing voucher, please don't hesitate to reach out. Send Dr. Simpson, Mrs. Laura, or Mrs. Lester a Facebook message, or call the school between 8:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. We will work with you confidentially to help meet your child's needs.
No child should have to worry about whether they have what they need to start the school year. At Mercer Elementary, we're committed to making sure every Pirate begins the year feeling proud, prepared, and ready to succeed.
❤️ Together, we're making a difference—one child at a time.
