Nikol Boyd

Principal, Taylor Road Middle School

It is truly an honor to join the Taylor Road Middle School community as your new principal. I am excited to become part of a school known for its tradition of excellence, strong partnerships, and unwavering commitment to student success.

With nearly 30 years in education and over 19 years serving as a school leader in Fulton County Schools, I bring a deep passion for teaching and learning, along with a commitment to fostering environments where every student can thrive. Most recently, I served as principal of Esther Jackson Elementary School, where we focused on strengthening instructional practices, building a positive school culture, and ensuring that every child had access to high-quality learning opportunities.

On a personal note, my connection to this district runs deep. I am the proud mother of two adult daughters who are the product of Fulton County Schools. Their experiences helped shape my belief in the power of strong schools and dedicated educators. I also truly believe that it takes a village to support and grow our students, and I look forward to partnering closely with staff, families, and the community to ensure every child’s success.

I am particularly excited about joining the Taylor Road community because of its reputation for academic excellence and community. Middle school is a pivotal time in a student’s journey, and I am committed to ensuring that each student feels supported, challenged, and inspired as they grow academically, socially, and emotionally. My leadership approach is rooted in collaboration, transparent communication, and continuous improvement. I look forward to working alongside our talented staff, engaged families, and outstanding students to continue the strong legacy of Taylor Road.

In the weeks ahead, my priority will be to listen, learn, and build connections with all members of our community. I believe deeply in the power of teamwork, and I am eager to hear your perspectives, celebrate your successes, and work together toward our shared goals.
