Timber Lane Elementary School Special Announcement!

a

Dear Timber Lane Families,

Due to an increase in staffing this upcoming school year we are pleased to announce that Timber Lane Elementary has qualified for a second Assistant Principal.  A panel of Timber Lane staff members have been hard at work, helping us find the new addition to our administrative team.  We are thrilled to announce that our new Assistant Principal will be Shele Banford!  Shele Banford joins us from the Office of Professional Learning and Family Engagement, where she served Title I schools across the division as a Literacy Resource Teacher.  For the last two years, Mrs. Banford has supported schools throughout Fairfax County, including Timber Lane, through her position as a Literacy Resource Teacher. 

Throughout the course of her career with Fairfax County Public Schools, she has served as a classroom teacher, interventionist, Literacy Collaborative coach, and Literacy Collaborative District Trainer. She holds a Master of Science in Reading and Literacy from Capella University and earned her Administration and Supervision endorsement from University of Virginia.  Mrs. Banford is excited to join the team at Timber Lane Elementary and looks forward to serving the community through her passion for teaching and learning.

Please join us in welcoming Shele Banford as our new Assistant Principal!

Sincerely,

Ben Chiet, Principal

Lisa O'Donovan, Assistant Principal
