April Sullivan

Assistant Principal of Instruction for Grades K-2

Bio

Welcomed into the world by a loving but financially disadvantaged family, April’s mother and grandmother strongly urged her to allow education to be the key out of economic disparity. Pushed academically from a very young age, she matriculated as a Hanley Elementary Tiger, Melrose High Golden Wildcat, and a degreed Tennessee State University Tiger. April went on to pursue a Masters of Education through the Memphis Teacher Residency program, by way of Union University.

As a lifelong learner, she plans to continue to develop professionally while serving the students and families in Memphis. April is a proud native of the Orange Mound community where she continues to worship and work. She enjoys working, learning, loving, and sharing her beacon of light with those who, once similar to her, face disadvantages.

April has served the Hanley family for the past 10 years in various capacities such as K-1 Educator, Intervention Specialist, Extended Learning After School Director, Assistant Principal of Student Services, and currently as the Assistant Principal of Instruction for K-2.
