BERKELEY COUNTY, S.C.–Shameka Washington, former principal at Sedgefield Middle, has been named the new principal of Goose Creek High and Rebecca Davis, former assistant principal at Sedgefield Middle, has been named Interim Principal at Sedgefield Middle.

“I am excited to have the opportunity to return to Goose Creek High and continue serving the students and families I love,” said Principal Washington. “I look forward to acquainting myself with the students who did not attend Sedgefield Middle and re-acquainting myself with my former middle school students.

“Serving under the strong leadership of Principal Washington these past five years at Sedgefield has helped to prepare me to lead our school during this time of transition,” said Sedgefield Middle Interim Principal Rebecca Davis. “I am honored and humbled to have the opportunity to lead the community I live and work in, and I am excited to continue working with our staff to support our students and reach our goals for success.”

Davis joined the Berkeley County School District as a middle school English Language Arts teacher in 2001, investing the past 16 years in public education. During the 2005-2006 school year, Davis worked with the Cainhoy Elementary/Middle School staff as a district instructional facilitator and most recently served as an assistant principal at Sedgefield Middle School since 2012.
