Welcome Beverly Carpenter

🎉👋 Let's give a big McDonald County Schools welcome to our new Rocky Comfort Elementary School Principal!  🎉👋

Beverly Carpenter will be taking the helm at Rocky Comfort for the 2023-24 school year! 👩‍🏫🏫

Mrs. Carpenter is joining us after serving as an Assistant Principal at Webb City Middle School, a Title I Instructional Coach at Mark Twain Elementary, and teaching 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades. 

👩🏻‍🎓 She received her bachelor's degree in education from Missouri Southern State University, her master's degree in teaching and technology from William Woods University as well as a master's degree in educational administration from Missouri Southern State University. 🎓🏫

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 She and her husband, James, have been married for 24 years, and they have three children. 

We're thrilled to have her leading our school and guiding our students to success! 🌟

🙌 She’ll be replacing long-time principal, Kern Sorrell, who's leaving at the end of the school year to take on a new role as principal at a Joplin school. We thank Mr. Sorrell for his years of service and dedication to making a difference in the lives of students and families at Rocky Comfort. 💗

💪 With Mrs. Carpenter's leadership, we're excited to continue providing a top-notch education for our students and creating a community that's dedicated to their success!

Welcome, Mrs. Carpenter, and thanks for joining us in our mission to make a difference in every child, every day, whatever it takes! ❤️🖤 🤍
