Mr. Chip Newton
I am excited to be the 6th grade Assistant Principal at Saluda Trail Middle School this school year! I am a 1999 graduate of Winthrop University with a B.A in Mathematics and a minor in Education. I began my teaching career in 1999 when STMS was first opened where I taught 8th grade math at until 2006. I also coached the 8th grade girls basketball team and 7th and 8th grade football. In 2006 I left STMS to open Dutchman Creek Middle School. There I again taught 8th grade math and coached basketball and football. In 2013 I graduated again from Winthrop University with my Masters in Administration. In 2014 I became the Assistant Principal at Mount Holly Elementary School. In 2017 I went to Rosewood Elementary school as the assistant principal. I returned to Saluda Trail in 2021. My educational career has taken me to different places and given me many different experiences in working with students. I am excited for this school year and I know we will do great things together!
