Principal
Mr. Rudy Poore
Welcome to TNT Primary School!
I have dedicated over 28 years of service to the Claiborne County School System. I began my career at Springdale Elementary as a special education teacher, later transitioning to teach 5th grade math, a role that I held for 11 1/2 years. I then served as the assistant principal at Soldiers Memorial Middle School for another 11 1/2 years before becoming principal in August 2023.
I am excited to begin a new chapter as the principal of TNT Primary School, where I look forward to continuing my commitment to students, staff, and the community with the same passion and dedication that have defined my career.
With gratitude,
Rudy Poore
Principal
