South Haven Elementary

We would like to welcome Ms. Victoria Jones to the Hawks Nest. Hi there! My name is Victoria Jones, and I am so excited to announce that I will be teaching K-8 Special Education at South Haven Elementary this year! I recently graduated from the University of Tennessee at Martin, but my Black and Gold blood runs deep. As a South Haven Hawk alum, I’m thankful to be able to teach at the school where I grew up and graduated from in 2015. I want to take a moment to share a little information about myself. I grew up in Lexington, and I’m grateful to be able to work back in my hometown. I love to travel, and I’m always down for an adventure. My friends and family are my heartbeat, and I’m thankful to have such a great support system. I cannot wait to meet you all very soon. I look forward to working with your students, the amazing staff at South Haven, and you, the parents! Go Hawks!!!
