Hello, and welcome to Holbrook Middle School! My name is William Winston, and I am honored to serve as the principal of this dedicated school community. I look forward to partnering with our students, staff, and families to create an environment where every student is empowered to thrive and become the best version of themselves.

 

I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Health, Physical Education, and Exercise Science from Virginia Commonwealth University, and a Master’s Degree in Administration and Supervision from the University of Phoenix. Over the years, I have been fortunate to work with outstanding educators and students across several schools.

 

My educational journey began in Henrico, Virginia, where I taught Driver Education and Health and Physical Education, while also serving as a coach. Since moving to Gaston County, I have served in a variety of roles including teacher and athletic director at Southwest Middle School, assistant principal at Hunter Huss High School, and most recently, principal at Robinson Elementary School.

 

Outside of school, I enjoy spending time gardening, reading, running, weightlifting, watching sports, cooking, puzzling, and fishing—or simply casting a line and enjoying the moment.

 

I am excited to lead Holbrook Middle School and collaborate with all stakeholders to support our students' growth and success.
