Rocky Ledford
Principal
I am honored to serve as the principal of Twin Oaks Elementary School and to be part of a school community that is deeply committed to student success. With a passion for building strong relationships, I believe that a positive school culture-where students feel safe, supported, and challenged-creates the foundation for meaningful learning. I am dedicated to working alongside our talented staff, engaged families, and community partners to ensure every child grows academically, socially, and emotionally. At Twin Oaks, we will focus on high-quality instruction, clear expectations, and a shared commitment to excellence for all.
I am proud to have served the students of Lee County Schools for the past 17 years in a variety of roles, including mathematics teacher, wrestling coach, assistant principal at KPS, and Secondary Director of Teaching and Learning. These experiences have shaped my commitment to supporting both students and educators in achieving their full potential. On a personal note, my wife, Jamie, and I are proud parents of three children who all attend Lee County Schools.

Danielle Whitaker
Assistant Principal
As a proud Lee County native, I matriculated through the Lee County School System from elementary through high school. I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Early Childhood Education from the University of Georgia. Go Dawgs! Upon graduation, I returned home to Leesburg and began my teaching career at Twin Oaks Elementary School, where I taught 5th-grade English Language Arts (ELA). Concurrently, I continued my academic pursuits, earning a Masters of Science degree in Early Childhood Education from Georgia Southwestern State University. My journey led me to North Carolina, where I taught 5th and 6th Grade ELA. However, I quickly learned there’s no place like home and returned to Lee County to be closer to family. At Lee County Elementary School, I continued my career teaching 5th Grade ELA. I transitioned to Lee County High School and became a Career, Technical, and Agricultural Education Teacher specializing in the Teaching as a Profession Pathway. This allowed me to play a crucial role in preparing students for future careers in education while sharing and instilling my love for teaching. During this phase, I earned a Leadership Certification from the University of West Georgia. This commitment to life-long learning reflects my belief in continuous improvement and excellence in education. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with family and friends and traveling. I am thrilled to serve as the interim Assistant Principal to continue sharing my passion for education with the next generation. If you need assistance or support, please feel free to reach out. I am here to help and contribute to the educational journey of our community.
