Hello, my name is Jenny Honeycutt and I’m the Assistant Principal here at Farrell B. Howell ECE-8 School. I have been at Howell since 2020. Prior to coming to Howell, I was an Assistant Principal at Mapleton Public Schools for five years. I was also an elementary classroom teacher for 11 years in many locations around the world, including Colorado, New Mexico, Thailand, and Bolivia. I am originally from Albuquerque, New Mexico, but I moved with my family to Littleton, Colorado when I was four years old. I have degrees in English, Education, and Educational Leadership from UNC Greeley, Metro State University, and Regis University. I currently live in Boulder with my husband, who is a high school Social Studies teacher, and my 9 year old son. A fun fact about me is that I love trail running and I spend most weekends exploring the mountains outside of Boulder.
