Justin Bledsoe - Principal
Since 2014, it has been a privilege to serve as the Principal of William J. Thornton Elementary. It is truly a blessing to work collaboratively with our parents, community, and staff to inspire, empower, and positively impact our children. Our commitment as a learning community is to build a positive environment where students’ social and emotional needs are met while providing high-quality instruction.
Students grow and achieve more when they are surrounded by involved and compassionate adults both within and outside the walls of a school. We greatly look forward to partnering with you to give our students what each and everyone deserves, a top-quality, rigorous education that will prepare them well for success in college and life.

It has been my pleasure to serve as the Vice Principal of William J Thornton Elementary. We work very hard to ensure all students are provided the best possible learning opportunity every day. As we strive to provide a rigorous academic structure for students, we also provide social emotional components to help students regulate their behavior. This in turn helps students learn to cope with their emotions.
What a great opportunity it has been to get to know the families, students and staff this year. I am so appreciative of the kind words and warm welcome I have been given this school year. Thank you for all you do with your student at home to help support your student in reaching their full potential.
