Jenny Hayes
2024-2025 Wilson County Schools Principal of the Year
Beddingfield High Principal Jenny Hayes was named the 2024-2025 Wilson County Schools Principal of the Year!!! Ms. Hayes has more than 20 years of experience in education - with 16 of those years as an administrator. This is her first school year as the principal of Beddingfield High. Prior to that, she was the principal at Vinson-Bynum, Hearne and Stantonsburg Elementary. She began her career as a teacher at Toisnot Middle in July 2003, but she was no stranger to us when she started working here. Ms. Hayes is a graduate of Hunt High.
Ms. Hayes has a gift for empowering students and staff to reach their full potential. She has created a school environment that revolves around trust, respect, teamwork and integrity. She goes above and beyond to build strong relationships with students, staff and families. She truly cares about EVERYONE.
After being surprised, Ms. Hayes shared these words with students, staff, district leaders and her family, “This is my dream job. It is possible for every one of you to live your dream because I am living mine. I am so thankful to everybody for believing in me. I always wanted to be a high school principal and my WHY is sitting right out here. I am so grateful to Wilson County Schools, Dr. Mills and Senior Staff.”
Special thanks to Wilson Education Partnership (WEP) for partnering with WCS on the surprise event! WCS and WEP both presented Ms. Hayes with cash prizes totaling $1,500. She will now advance to the regional level of the statewide Principal of the Year competition! She is truly deserving of this honor and will represent us well.
