Administration

Andrea Oakley

It is an honor to be a part of the Scales Superstar community and serve as Interim Principal.  

My previous 13 years of experience in education started at La Vergne Middle School as a teacher and dean of students, La Vergne High School as a teacher and dean of students, Riverdale High School as an assistant principal, and John Pittard Elementary as an academic coach. I hold a Bachelor of Science Degree in Human Ecology, a master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction, and an Education Specialist degree in Instructional Leadership. As an educational leader at Scales Elementary School, I strive to focus on building relationships with the school community while guiding emphasis on the whole child in building success and achievement. As a servant leader I genuinely love supporting students, teachers, and the community to ensure a safe and effective environment.  

My husband and I have two amazing sons. Spending time with our families is a core value in our home. We also enjoy weekends at the lake, traveling, and outside activities. I look forward to supporting the Scales community and continuing to build relationships with our Superstars.
