Kelly Briggs, School Director

As the principal of MIT High School, now in my third year, and the Director of Learning for the entire Griffin Technology Academies organization, I am dedicated to fostering an environment where students feel safe, supported, and inspired. My journey into education was deeply personal; growing up with a challenging home life, school and my teachers became my sanctuary. They provided a haven of stability and encouragement that profoundly shaped my life. It is my mission to provide that same nurturing environment for our students, ensuring they have the support and resources they need to thrive both academically and personally.

Before stepping into administrative roles, I was a PE teacher and a Biology teacher, experiences that have enriched my understanding of student needs and educational dynamics. Outside of work, I cherish spending time with my son and granddaughter. I also enjoy going to the gym, love visiting the beach, and find relaxation in listening to audiobooks. Additionally, my two adorable dogs, Baby and Tink, bring joy and companionship to my life.
