This will be my first year as Principal of William Gay Early Childhood Center.
I taught 4th grade for 25 years at Will Rogers Elementary. Next, I taught Art at Will Rogers, Edmond Doyle, and Parker. After obtaining my administration degree I was the Assistant Principal at Parker for 2 years. Next, I was the principal at Edmond Doyle for 8 years. I am currently the principal at William Gay Early Childhood Center. This makes my 38th year in education working for McAlester Public Schools. I could retire...but I still love my job loving the children of McAlester!
I have been married to Kerry Hunt for 19 years. I have three children, Kyle, Jessie, and Kerri….they have given me Gabe, Gage, Gabby, Benjamin, and Harper. I also have Kirsty that has shared Kace, Kash, and Kam with me. Kyle and Jessie are products of McAlester Public Schools. Kerri attended Krebs and MHS. Gabe and Gage are currently attending McAlester Public Schools. Our two dogs, Oreo and Bella, keep us safe and love to run around their big yard.
I spend most of my spare time having fun with my best friends! They range in age from 9years to 3 months. They keep me very busy and I love even moment of getting to be with them.
