Stacey Knighton has been in education since 2011. Before becoming an administrator, she was a classroom teacher for three years in Mahomet, IL, and seven years in Glendale Heights, IL. She has taught 7th-grade mathematics and 6th-grade science throughout her career.
Ms. Knighton holds a Master of Arts degree from Concordia University Chicago, where she participated in the Principal Preparation Program. Her undergraduate studies at Illinois State University included endorsements in mathematics, science, and social studies instruction. Ms. Knighton’s teaching certificate is specific to middle school students. She enjoys working with this age group and helping them discover who they are and what they want to become in their young adolescent years.
The 2023-2024 school year is the second year that Ms. Knighton has served as one of the assistant principals at Jay Stream. Previously, she was Jay Stream’s Athletic Director and now serves as the Student Services Team Chair.
On a more personal note, Ms. Knighton enjoys spending time with her large family, going on outdoor adventures (camping, fishing, kayaking), and traveling whenever possible.
