Welcome to Highland Middle School! My name is Britton Sullivan and I am privileged to serve as Principal of Highland Middle School. The children and families that we serve are my top priority and we are focused on creating the best educational learning environment for our students! This is my 22nd year in education and 14th year with Harnett County Schools. I graduated from Florida State University with a degree in Social Work before earning my Masters Degree from Campbell University in Education. I spent 12 years as a classroom teacher in 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 6th grades, in Sampson and Harnett Counties, in North Carolina and in Colorado Springs, Colorado. I served as Assistant Principal at Overhills Elementary for four years and South Harnett Elementary for a little over a year. For two years, I served as Principal at Buies Creek Elementary before moving to Highland Middle. I have four children of my own, three girls and one boy, ages 23, 18, 16, and 11. My oldest graduated from the University of North Carolina-Charlotte, my second is attending UNC-C and my two youngest are students here in Harnett County. My husband retired from the Army a few years ago and continues to work closely with the military.

I enjoy working closely with all the staff, students, parents, and community members each and every year to make Highland Middle School the best place to be. I encourage communication between home and school and always want to hear your input on how we can improve and continue to grow as a school. I can be reached by email at bsullivan@harnett.k12.nc.us or you may call the school at any time. Go Vikings!

Hello, Vikings Parents, Guardians, and Students,

I am genuinely honored to join the Highland Middle team.  At HMS, we are dedicated to educating all students in a safe environment, empowering all students to make positive choices, and inspiring all students to strive for personal and academic success.

As assistant principal, my mission is to establish collaborative relationships with families and communities to foster opportunities for students to demonstrate the social, emotional, academic competencies needed to achieve their career aspirations and become ethical, empathetic, and compassionate global citizens.

 I am excited for the opportunity to work with tomorrow's world builders and game-changers.

Yours in Education,

TJ Carver
