School Board Appoints New Leaders
As part of its approval of the monthly human resources employment recommendations, the Cherokee County School Board on Thursday appointed new district staff and a new assistant principal for Etowah High School.
Tyler Gwynn, a 26-year educator who currently serves as a district Human Resources executive director for strategic talent management, was appointed to fill the vacancy created by the retirement later this month of Chief of Staff Mike McGowan. Mr. Gwynn joined CCSD in 2022 after working as a teacher and district HR leader for the Cobb County School District and Marietta City Schools.
Merry Hofmeister, a 21-year educator who currently serves as an instructional technology specialist, was appointed supervisor of instructional technology services to fill the vacancy created by a recent promotion. A multi-year Microsoft Innovative Educator Fellow, Ms. Hofmeister has served her entire career with CCSD.
Victoria Brown, a 14-year educator and CCSD graduate who currently serves as Etowah’s graduation coach and head softball coach, will advance to an assistant principal role there to fill the vacancy created by the retirement next month of Dr. Curt Ashley. Ms. Brown also serves on the Superintendent’s inaugural Teacher Advisory Council.
