October is Principals Month

October is National Principal Appreciation Month.  We are lucky to be blessed with great Principals.  The feature below is on Mr. Jones, OMS Principal.  

Principal - Mike Jones, OMS Principal since 2021

Where did I  go to college?   BA in Youth Ministry from Greenville University; MA in Secondary Education from Greenville University; MS in Education Administration from Illinois State University

The people I spend my time with outside of school are…My family- My wife Alyssa and our three kids- Maddie, Hannah, and Hudson

The best thing about working in Spartan Nation: The family atmosphere, and the focus on importance of relationships.

Fun fact….I can wiggle my ears. 

I became a principal because I want to make an impact on the lives of both students and staff. I want to inspire people to be the best version of themselves

The best thing about my job is I  get to know all of the students and staff at OMS. Also, every day is different- no two days are ever the same.

Thank you Mr. Jones for all you do for the students and staff of Olympia!
