RAIDERS!! I am so pumped to serve as the principal of East Burke Middle School and as a member of the Raider nation! I have lived and worked in Burke County most of my life and am a graduate of East Burke High School. During my first eight years in education I had the privilege of teaching at George Hildebrand and East Burke Middle School. For the past five years, I have served in an administrative role in both Caldwell and Catawba Counties. Currently I reside in Burke County with my wife Betsy of 16 years who is a hairstylist and our 3 children Braleigh, Bentley, and Berkley.
Working to build relationships with students, parents, teachers and the community of eastern Burke County tops my list. I want students to achieve academic success and also work to find what they want to be as a productive participant in our community for years to come. In my time in education I have learned that the “whole” student is more important than just what they can achieve in a specific class. My goal is to develop students with great character so they are good people, not just learners.
I look forward to serving this community and being able to give back a portion of what it gave me. Reach out at any time! My contact information is listed below.
Sincerely,
DJ Carswell
