## Resource

Principal Ashley Witt of Buchanan Elementary just earned semifinalist honors for Tennessee Principal of the Year — a nod to her heart-centered leadership, school culture, and unwavering commitment to student success. Since taking the helm in 2017, Witt has built a community where every student feels seen and supported, earning praise from district leaders like Dr. Jimmy Sullivan, who called her growth and purpose “undeniable.” Rooted in her own Rutherford County upbringing, Witt sees her role as more than administrative — it’s about empowering kids to thrive. With the final winner to be announced later this year, her journey is a powerful reminder of the impact one dedicated leader can have across Tennessee’s classrooms.
