Dear East Lincoln Families,
It is with great excitement and deep gratitude that I write to you as the new principal of East Lincoln Elementary. Returning to the Tullahoma community—a place that shaped so much of my own journey as an educator—feels both like coming home and stepping into a bright new chapter.
While I may be new to East Lincoln Elementary, I am no stranger to the Tullahoma City Schools family. Earlier in my career, I had the privilege of serving as a teacher at Robert E. Lee where I came to know firsthand the strength, warmth, and commitment that define this district.
As an educator and leader, I believe that strong schools are built on relationships, collaboration, and a shared belief in the potential of every child. Further, schools thrive when students feel seen, families feel heard, and staff feel supported. I am committed to fostering a safe, inclusive, and challenging learning environment where students are encouraged to grow both academically and personally.
Families are essential in this work. Whether your family has been part of this community for years or is just joining us, know that you are a valued partner in your child’s education.
In the weeks and months ahead, I hope to meet each of you. Please know that my door is always open, and I welcome your thoughts, questions, and ideas. Together, I know we can continue the tradition of excellence that makes East Lincoln such a special place.
With excitement and gratitude,
Rhonda Stevens
Principal, East Lincoln Elementary
