Dear Seckinger Families,
I am pleased to announce that Mr. Jimmy Fisher has been appointed as the new principal of Seckinger High School. Mr. Fisher is a graduate of Gwinnett County Public Schools’ Aspiring Principal Program and has diligently served as our Assistant Principal for Curriculum & Instruction for over two years. He has played a pivotal role in launching our school and cluster, from developing and implementing our school design and assembling a top-notch team of faculty and staff to fostering community engagement and celebrating our successes along the way.
I am confident that under Mr. Fisher's leadership, the Seckinger Standard will continue to flourish and reinforce our reputation as a caring, inclusive, participatory, and future-ready school. Mr. Fisher will officially step into his new role on November 1, 2023, ensuring a seamless transition.
Please join me in extending a warm congratulations to Mr. Fisher!
Best regards,
Memorie Reesman
