About Us

Hello Wintergreen Families!
I am so glad to be back at Wintergreen, now as Principal. I am married and have two children, Malorie and Austin. Malorie is twenty-one years old and Austin is eleven. Malorie is a Dental Hygiene student at Wayne Community College and Austin is in the fifth grade at Wintergreen Intermediate. My husband, Chuck, works with Gregory Poole Equipment Company.

I graduated from East Carolina University in 1990 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Early Childhood Education and again in 2004 with a Master's Degree in School Administration. I have been a teacher, assistant principal and principal for twenty-five years. The last eighteen years have been with Pitt County Schools.

My hope is to provide every child a wonderful place to play, learn and grow.

Sincerely,
Cathy Kirkland
