Dr. Takila Meadows-Curry, Principal

Mrs. Takila Meadows-Curry is no stranger to Newton County nor is she a stranger to the importance of a quality education.

Mrs. Curry received her formal education in the Social Circle School System. After graduation she began her pursuit of higher education. Her choice of a professional career was greatly influenced by the Biblical reference in Proverbs 22:6 which clearly states “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”

She received her Bachelor of Science Degree in Early Childhood Education from the State University of West Georgia; however, this accomplishment was just the beginning of her pursuit. She continued her preparation at Jacksonville State University where she received her Master’s Degree in Educational Administration and a Specialist Degree in Educational Administration. Recently, she received a Doctorate Degree in Educational Administration from Georgia Southern University. All of these experiences are propelled by her profound belief and commitment to the Biblical reference of Proverbs 22:6.

Mrs. Curry’s professional experiences include the following: Clay Elementary School-Cobb County; Forrest Hills Elementary- Dekalb County; Assistant Principal-Palmer-Stone Elementary-Newton County School System; Principal-Fairview Elementary-Newton County; and most recently the appointment as principal of West Newton Elementary School beginning July 2009.

Mrs. Curry is an active member of the Newton County Community. She endeavors to serve others and set a positive example for the staff and students that she works with on a daily basis. She is happily married to Keith Curry and has a daughter, Kennedy.
