Pitt County Schools

Aaron Rountree earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Secondary Math Education from East Carolina University in 2015.

Aaron has served as a math teacher at both JH Rose High School and ECU (East Carolina University) Innovation Early College High School in Pitt County Schools. He has taught Math 1, Math 2, Math 3, Math 4, Precalculus, and ACT Prep. In his first years at JH Rose High School, he was nominated as a Key BT (Beginning Teacher) where he had the opportunity to participate in training courses on Classroom Management, Conversational Skills, and School Leadership. In addition to the trainings, Aaron attended BT meetings within his school to mentor new teachers. He also took the opportunity to host a Clinical Teacher from ECU during his time at JH Rose, who was subsequently hired on the completion of her internship.

Aaron currently serves as an Assistant Principal at DH Conley High School. In his short tenure there, he has had the chance to positively impact instruction through classroom walkthroughs and observations. In addition, he has made positive changes in school transportation, resulting in increased instructional time for students who rely on the bus to get to school.

As a member of the ECU Pirate Leadership Academy, Aaron looks forward to developing the skills needed to be an excellent school administrator. While doing so, he intends to form collaborative relationships with members of his cohort as they work closely through their graduate work and eventually in school administration.
