This past May, Putnam County School Director Kathleen Airhart named Bobby Winningham the new Principal of Park View Elementary.

Also known as “Coach”, Winningham is replacing Sharon Griggs, who is now Curriculum Supervisor for grades 7-12.

Being in education for 30 years, he has served as Vice Principal at both Cookeville and Monterey High Schools.

“I will miss the students, faculty and staff at Monterey High, however I am looking forward to working with the children and faculty here at Parkview,” said Winningham.

Since Winningham has never worked on the elementary level, we asked him if he was nervous about working with younger aged children.

“I am a little nervous because this will be my first experience at this level since I was in elementary school as a student. But then again, with new challenges and opportunities come new experiences. I am looking forward to helping the Parkview parents with making their children’s first years in our school system fun and fulfilling,” said Principal Winningham.
