Dr. Ashley Johnessee - Principal

Welcome Huskies!

My name is Dr. Ashley Johnessee and I am so proud to be the Principal at Haw Creek!  I began my teaching career at Settles Bridge Elementary as a Kindergarten paraprofessional before teaching both Kindergarten and Fifth Grade at Chestatee Elementary School. I then joined Lambert High School as a part of the English Department where I also served as an Assistant Administrator and Assistant Principal. A proud, double-dawg, I finished my Doctorate in Education from the University of Georgia and am a firm believer in the power of following open doors where they lead you. I am beyond excited to call Haw Creek my new home and to serve our community as principal. I am grateful for the encouragement and support of my husband, Chris and our daughter, Juliana (14). Maggie, my therapy dog, is also excited to join the #huskypack and we look forward to meeting our community!

Mrs. Jordann Aler - Assistant Principal

Hello Haw Creek Families!  The 2022 school year marks my sixteenth year in education.  Throughout those years, I have proudly served as an ELA teacher, Instructional Coach, and Assistant Principal.  Originally from Ohio, I graduated from Ohio University with a Bachelor's degree in English, and later obtained my Master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Nova Southeastern University, and completed my Tier 1 Leadership from West Georgia University.   

As a mother of two boys, I am seeing first-hand the impact that our school system has in shaping them into kind, life-long learners. This year, my son, Garrison, and our therapy dog, Sadie, will be attending school with me. Sadie is thrilled to join the #huskypack! 

When not at school, my husband, our boys, and dogs are likely to be found at sporting events or boating on Lake Lanier.  

It is a privilege and honor to serve at Haw Creek, where we embody values and behaviors that create the conditions for success.  I look forward to partnering with you to make this the best year yet!
