Ms. Alicia Parker

With 10 years of experience in education, I proudly serve as the 8th-grade assistant principal at McDonough Middle School. Having worked in both elementary and middle schools as a classroom teacher and Literacy Instructional Coach, I bring a well-rounded perspective on the academic and developmental needs of students. 

In my role, I am dedicated to supporting students during their crucial transition from middle to high school. I focus on fostering academic growth, character development, and preparing students for future challenges. I collaborate closely with staff, families, and the community to create a positive and engaging learning environment that empowers students to excel.

I am passionate about promoting a culture of respect, responsibility, and resilience, and I often remind students: “Why be good, when you can be GR8!” – a motto that encourages them to always strive for their best.
