What a beautiful morning celebrating the incredible Dr. Jones! 💙

Today was the perfect tribute to someone so loved by the Barton Academy family. Thank you, Dr. Jones, for your leadership, your heart, and for always being you.

The Mobile Excelsior Band’s second line performance was the perfect ending to such an unforgettable celebration and an amazing era. 🎉

Please share your photos from today in the comments below!

Throwing it back to Dr. Jones’ school days from Thomasville High School! 💙

From leading pep rallies to attending Beta Club Convention — and even serving as 5th grade class president (she still has her gavel!) — Dr. Jones has always embodied the well-rounded spirit that would later help make Barton Academy so special.

Her passion for leadership, school pride, academics, and meaningful student experiences created a culture where students could grow, connect, and shine in every way. Thank you, Dr. Jones, for bringing that same energy, heart, and dedication to Barton Academy. 💙

Share your favorite school spirit picture!

🏈✨ If you know Dr. Jones, then you know two things — she’s a born leader and a HUGE Alabama football fan. ❤️🐘

But did you know her leadership skills showed up way back in the 8th grade?

After an Alabama football game, young Dr. Jones confidently walked straight past security and into the University of Alabama locker room like she owned the place. 😂 Her mission? To meet Alabama quarterback Jay Barker.

Mission accomplished. ✔️
She got the picture. ✔️
She got the autograph. ✔️

…Unfortunately, the autographed shirt later went through the washing machine thanks to her mom. 😅

Some people follow the crowd. Others walk straight through the locker room doors chasing their goals. Dr. Jones has always been the second kind. ❤️🐘

What goals has your student accomplished thanks to Dr. Jones leadership?

🎶📼 Barton Academy is saying goodbye to a true star this week — Dr. Jones! ✨

And in honor of her love for all things 90s, we’re throwing it ALL the way back with these photos!

Fun fact: Dr. Jones’ first degree was in Music with a specialization in Voice Performance… so it’s only right that we celebrate her through music. 🎶💙

Now tell us👇🏽
🎧 What song reminds you of Dr. Jones — and why?

Whether it’s a song about strength, joy, inspiration, or just pure good vibes, drop it in the comments and help us make her a farewell mixtape full of love!
