Mrs. Tracy Gaines

Hello Trojans!

As a product of Harnett County Schools, this marks my 22nd year as an educator. I am an alumna of East Carolina University where I received both my undergraduate and masters. My career began in the high school classroom teaching English. In 2008 I left the classroom for a different role as a school media specialist. This year begins an exciting new chapter as I return to my roots in the English classroom.

I have lofty expectations for all students and hold them to the highest standards. Every student is capable of achieving greatness. Productivity, cooperation, and respect are my three non-negotiables. In return I will provide a positive learning environment with consistency and optimism.

Trojans, I look forward to a great year!
Stay Gold!
