Hi, my name is Shelly Gerstner, and I will manage the cafeteria at New Hope.

I am originally from Belleville, Illinois. I have a bachelor's of Science degree from McKendree University in Lebanon, Illinois. I've most recently been the cafeteria manager at Big Creek Elementary School.

My husband and I moved to Georgia in 2008. We have a son and daughter who attended and graduated from Forsyth County Schools. I enjoy sports, being outdoors, shopping and spending time with my family and friends.

I look forward to opening a new school and meeting and forming new relationships with students and staff!
