My name is Deon Kennedy. I am excited about being the Assistant Principal of Mount Holly Middle School.  I have been a part of the Gaston County Schools’ team since January 2000. I served as a classroom teacher on the elementary level and middle school level for 14 ½  years. In the Fall of 2014,  I began my role as an Assistant Principal.

I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Elementary Education from the University of South Carolina and a Master of Educational Leadership degree from Gardner-Webb University.

After all these years, I still appreciate the opportunity to get up each day to help educate and support the growth of our children.
