As we continue to celebrate National Assistant Principals Week:

Ms. James is excited to be back for her second year as Assistant Principal at Orange Park High School. Originally from Kentucky, Ms. James moved to Florida in 2015 and quickly traded the rolling hills for life on the water. With a background in education spanning Pre-K through high school, she joined Clay County in 2020 and served as both a teacher and a Dean before stepping into her current leadership role.

A deep passion for personal growth drives her, and she believes that every student has the potential to fulfill their biggest dreams. As a mother of four and a proud grandmother of one, Ms. James approaches leadership with a "family-first" heart, striving to ensure every Raider feels supported and empowered.

When she isn’t on campus, you’ll likely find her soaking up the Florida sunshine. Whether she’s boating, hiking, camping, or spending a day at the beach with her family, she loves staying active outdoors. Ms. James is looking forward to another fantastic year of collaborating with the staff, students, and the entire Orange Park community!

Mr. G., says, "Ms. James is one of the nicest people I have ever worked with. She has a heart for people and a undeniable passion for all students."
