Hello Pirate Family! 

It is my privilege to continue to work with our students and our amazing staff and faculty here! My goal is to continue providing a supportive climate and culture conducive to teaching and learning. I will also continue to build relationships and make our students' school experiences relevant and exciting. 

I am a graduate of Elizabeth City State University with a bachelor's in Social Work. VIKING PRIDE! I received my Masters in Executive Leadership from Gardner-Webb University. Home of the BULLDOGS! I have been in education for the last 20 years. First working with students with special needs at the elementary and secondary levels and then as an Assistant Principal. Family is very important to me. I love spending quality time with my two children, Joshua and Brielle. We have a black Labrador Retriever named Shadow. In my spare time, I love traveling, attending my kid's sporting events, and watching Lifetime movies and HGTV. 

I am eager to continue to serve the Corinth Community and work collaboratively with staff, families, and the community to create lifelong learners. If you have any questions or need any assistance please do not hesitate to contact our admin team. 

Let’s have a great school year!

I grew up in Chesterfield, VA and have been in North Carolina for 24 years.  I am happily married to an awesome wife, and I have a 17 year old son.  I am a coffee lover, and I am always looking out for a different or better coffee to try.  I enjoy hanging out with my family and enjoy movies, reading, working out, and enjoying life.  If I can have great food, great coffee, and great fellowship, this would be my “happy place." I taught Health & PE, Weight Training, and Leadership classes prior to becoming an Assistant Principal. In 2022, I became an Assistant Principal at Clayton Middle School and then transitioned over to CHHS in 2023.  I am looking forward to another year as a Pirate.

I graduated from Longwood College (now University) in 1996 with a B.S. in Teaching Physical Education with a Concentration in Exercise and Health Science.  In 2002, I became a substitute teacher and assistant wrestling coach for Southeast Raleigh Magnet High School (SRMHS).  While substituting solely for two years at SRMHS, I became the head Wrestling Coach and was hired as a full-time Health & PE Teacher in 2004.  I was the Head Wrestling Coach for nine years.  In 2005, I obtained his Masters in teaching Health & Physical Education K-12 from Campbell University and later completed a Post-Master's Certificate in School Administration from the University of North Carolina Greensboro in 2021.

I’m excited to join the staff of Corinth Holders High School this year. I join CHHS from Princeton Elementary where I spent the last 13 years as a classroom teacher, STEAM and technology facilitator, Curriculum Coach and MTSS Lead.

As a product of Johnston County Schools, I am thankful for the opportunity to continue my career at Corinth as an Assistant Principal and I look forward to a wonderful year.

My name is Andres Restrepo. I have been in education for 14 years as an ESL teacher and school administrator. I went to college to learn English and fell in love with this incredible language. I completed my bachelor's in Modern Languages, earned a Master's in ESL, and a Master's in School Administration; I am currently finishing my doctorate in Curriculum and Instruction. I am forever a learner and EDUCATION is my lifestyle!

High school was my safe place where I dreamed of where and what I wanted to be. I knew that I was born to serve in schools, so I am blessed to live my dream every day. I want to contribute to making Corinth Holders High School your living dream where you reach your highest potential.

I look forward to our new school year at Corinth Holders High School!
