Dear Stark Strong Community, 

My name is Nichole Craft, and I am the Assistant Principal of Instruction at Stark Elementary School.  I am so honored and blessed to be a part of the Stark Strong Community.

I am excited to let you know a little about myself. I am a native Georgian and have spent the majority of my life in the Metro Atlanta Area.  I have lived in Butts County on Jackson Lake since 2016.  I worked in the corporate world for 14 years as a bank manager before deciding to become an educator.  I received a Bachelor of Arts degree in MIddle Grade ELA and Math from Clayton State University.  I then went on to receive a Master of Science degree in Elementary Reading and Math from Walden University.  I have been an Educator for 16 years.  I taught 3rd grade for seven years, 6th Grade Language arts for two years, Middle School Theatre for three years and this will be my fourth year as an administrator.  I am passionate about ensuring all students reach their full potential in a safe and welcoming environment. 

I have been fortunate enough to be married to my Middle School sweetheart for 27 years. We have one amazing 22 year old son who is a Mechanical Engineer. We have one beautiful Morkie who keeps us on our toes.  In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends on the lake, cooking, fishing, painting, writing, yoga, walking, reading and playing games. 

I look forward to working with each of you in the upcoming school year! 

We are Stark Strong!
