Dear Princeton Elementary Families,

I am honored to serve as your proud Principal and am thrilled to be a part of our remarkable community. Princeton Elementary holds a special place in my heart, and I am truly grateful for the opportunity to work alongside such an exceptional staff, incredible families, and a supportive, impactful community.

My journey in education has equipped me with the experience, passion, and dedication needed to lead our school with a strong focus on academic excellence, social-emotional growth, and meaningful community connections. I am committed to fostering a safe, welcoming, and loving environment where all students can grow and learn together.

As your Principal, I am deeply committed to continuing the rich traditions, values, and successes that make Princeton Elementary so special—while also striving to build upon that strong foundation to ensure our students reach even greater heights.

I look forward to partnering with each of you as we support the growth and success of our students. It’s going to be an incredible school year—Go Bulldogs!

Warm regards,
Ashley Radford
Principal

My name is Mrs. Chaundler Vaughn. It is my pleasure to be a part of Princeton Elementary School as the Assistant Principal. I have been in education for a total of 28 years. I started my career as a Teacher Assistant in 1997. I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education in 2007, my Master’s Degree in Curriculum and Instruction in 2013, and my Administrative License in 2017.

Throughout these years, I have worked in kindergarten, second and fourth. I am originally from Pinehurst, North Carolina but started traveling around the world when I was in the second grade due to my father being in the military. While we were stationed in Ft. Campbell, Kentucky, I met my husband. My husband’s name is Keith Vaughn. We have been married 37 years. He is retired military. We have one son named Keith Carl Vaughn II, whom we call KC. I have three grandchildren, Cameron, Aaliyah, and Kingston. They live in Douglasville, Georgia. I am known as “Ginni” to them. I love being a grandmother. I love family, and they are everything to me.

When I am not at work, I love spending time with my husband, traveling, and reading. I attend Princeton Church of God and love my family there as well.

I look forward to another great year with the Princeton Elementary family and working with you this upcoming school year.
