Two exciting announcements were made at the April 13 Board of Education meeting regarding our board members.
First, Post 6 board member Christie Fox accepted her nomination to become the new Vice Chairperson of the Board. Mrs. Fox’s willingness to step into this leadership role reflects her continued commitment to the students, families, and staff of Gordon County Schools. As a dedicated board member, she has consistently demonstrated thoughtful leadership, a strong understanding of governance, and a strong focus on supporting student success.
The Board then accepted the nomination and appointment of Mrs. Jennifer Dixon to fill the Post 4 vacancy.
Mrs. Dixon brings a deep and personal connection to Gordon County Schools as a lifelong member of the community, a proud alumna, and a parent of a current student. She and her husband, Keith Dixon, have been married for 27 years and are both graduates of Gordon Central High School.

She currently serves as Assistant Dean of Public Service and Program Director of Early Childhood Education at Georgia Northwestern Technical College. In this role, she provides instructional leadership, oversees program quality and accreditation, manages budgets, supervises faculty, and works closely with community and school system partners to strengthen educational pathways.
Mrs. Dixon brings strengths in instructional leadership, strategic planning, data-informed decision-making, policy and governance, and a strong commitment to accountability and responsible stewardship of resources.
