Administration & Central Office Staff

Superintendent's Welcome

Dickson Public Schools serves approximately 1400 students in 4 buildings at our site. We employ over 80 certified faculty members and 45 non-certified staff, plus the central and building administration.

The faculty and staff at Dickson Public Schools are committed to educating each child to the fullest of their potential. In order to do so, we are committed to providing:
--A safe environment
--Quality character education
--Modern, rigorous instructional practices
--Research-based and appropriate curriculum
--Ongoing and thorough communication
Our faculty and staff recognize that the best way to teach our students is to continue to learn by participating in high-quality professional development in those areas. As educators, we focus our practices on being both proactive and reflective in order to foster an individualized experience for each student. Through having Goals, Resiliency, Integrity, and Tenacity (GRIT), we encourage our students to discover their potential and achieve readiness for work or further education.

We could not do any of this without our community's support. Thank you for trusting us with your students.

Go Comets,
Jamie Mitchell
