​​​Ms. Nikol Boyd, Principal​

My name is Nikol Boyd, and I am honored to serve as the principal of Esther Jackson Elementary.  I am excited and privileged to begin my next educational experience working side-by-side with a talented staff, devoted parents, and supportive community.  I am truly impressed by the positive school culture and dedication to student growth that are so apparent at Esther Jackson. The steady gains in student achievement over recent years are a testament to the outstanding work of our students, teachers, and parents, and I look forward to coming alongside the community as we continue on our path to excellence. 

My enthusiasm for education and passion for supporting students to reach their highest potential have been shaped over the past 22 years as an elementary teacher, Curriculum Support Teacher, and Elementary and High School Assistant Principal. In each of these roles, I have worked to ensure that all students thrive and achieve academic and social-emotional success. I value community involvement and shared decision-making, and my door will always be open at Esther Jackson. I am committed to listening to all teachers, parents, and students so that we may work collectively to fulfill the vision of success for all.

I look forward to building new relationships over the next few months as we transition into the 2018-2019 school year. I am excited to meet our community members, school partners, school leaders, staff, and students. A "Meet and Greet" will take place during the week of July 23-27 for students and community members. For school staff, there will be an opportunity to sign up for a personal meeting where I will share a little about me and then listen to all you wish to share about Esther Jackson.  Please look for additional information during the upcoming weeks.

Thank you for trusting me to lead this amazing community of learners. I am proud to call myself a Jaguar!

Sincerely,

Nikol Boyd
