Dear Gravely Community,
Congratulations to Mrs. Angela Owens, on her acceptance of a principalship at Woodbridge Middle School!        
 “I am so very happy to have spent 3 years here at Gravely.  I will carry with me,  Once a Seadog, Always a         Seadog.” 

We will be interviewing for the position in the next few weeks.  We will notify the community as soon as the new appointment has been made.        
Thank you.

Owens’ bio from the Gravely site: 

I  came to Prince William County in 2000 as a teacher at Graham Park Middle School.  I was named an Assistant Principal in July 2004. After serving two years as an Asst. Principal at Montclair Elementary,  I started as the proud Assistant to the Principal at Woodbridge Middle in 2006.

As a military spouse for over 26 years, I have been in the teaching field since 1986 teaching in North Carolina, Georgia, Nuernberg, Germany, Nebraska, and Virginia in grades 4-8 and adults. 

I received a BS in Elementary Education from South Carolina State University in 1986 and a Master’s Degree from George Mason University in Education Leadership in 2006.

I am a proud mom of three children in Prince William County Schools. My oldest daughter is now teaching 4th grade in Prince William County Schools.

My belief is to build character through personalization and as a collaborative leader, allowing staff, students, families and the community the opportunity to embrace the vision of hope, caring, and love in an inclusive environment where ALL have the skills, experiences, and confidence to achieve SUCCESS in school,  our world class school division, and society.
