His vast range of experiences as an equity-focused instructional leader coupled with his focus on facilitating strong, positive school cultures that support all students, will be great assets to VAHS.

Mr. Cox brings 21 years of experience in the field of education to the VAHS Principal role. He has served as a science teacher for students in grades 7 - 12, assistant principal at the high school level, and head principal at the middle school and high school levels.

He holds Superintendent, Director of Instruction, and Principal Certifications, a Masters of Arts in Education with a focus on Curriculum and Instruction, and a Bachelor of Arts in Secondary Education with a focus on Biology and Chemistry. He is pursuing his doctoral degree in Educational Leadership. Mr. Cox was named the Milken Outstanding Educator in 2019 for, in part, his engaging and inspiring presence that motivates and impacts students, colleagues, and the community. He serves on the Board of Directors for the Boys and Girls Clubs of America and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.
