JACKSON Tenn – Rose Hill School will have a new leader when the 2018-2019
school year begins August 3.

Dr. Teresa McSweeney has returned to the Jackson-Madison County School
System to take over the leadership position at the Rose Hill K through 8th grade school.
“My number one goal is to continue the culture of excellence and sense of
community that exists at Rose Hill,” explained McSweeney. “I want to
build on this foundation to appropriately prepare students for high school
and beyond.”

McSweeney, began her career as an English teacher at Jackson Central-Merry
High School, would later serve as Assistant Principal under JMCSS
superintendent Dr. Eric Jones. She would join Dr. Jones in Huntsville,
Ala., then serve as high school principal at 21 st Century Cyber Charter
School in Downingtown, Penn.

The Jackson native said it was an easy decision to return home to work
with Dr. Jones again. “Great things are happening in my hometown,” McSweeney
said. “I want to be part of something that will have an impact on the
future.” McSweeney takes over for Pam Betler, who retired from JMCSS at
the end of the 2017-2018 school year after 32 years of service.
