Welcome to the spotlight Mrs. White, the Assistant Principal of Hayesville High School and Hayesville Middle School! Each day, Mrs. White splits her time between the two schools. Along with supporting Mr. Overlin and Dr. Clapsaddle, she is also a wife to Colby White and mother to daughter, Everly. When asked what the most difficult thing about splitting her time between two schools is, she said, “The hardest part is figuring out how to navigate being in two places and feeling like I don’t do a good enough job at either place.”
Although she is the Assistant Principal now, she hasn’t always been. At the beginning of her educational career, she was a long term English substitute for a semester at Andrews High School, and eventually she was hired as a full-time English teacher. As the years went on, she became the History and Spanish teacher as well at Andrews High School. In 2023, she moved to Hayesville High School and became the Spanish teacher prior to her promotion to Assistant Principal. She has always dreamt of having an administrative position in a school and would like to encourage other teachers to reach for administrative positions. While not balancing two schools, Mrs. White enjoys concerts to see her favorite artists like Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter.
