GLOW Welcomes Tayloe as Principal

The Girls Leadership Academy of Wilmington announced this summer that KATE TAYLOE is the school’s new principal.

GLOW Academy is a single-gender charter school and has an enrollment of 450 students in grades 6-11. It opened in 2016 and will graduate its inaugural class in 2023.

“Tayloe has been a top-performing principal in the New Hanover County school system, implementing programs to improve school performance, enhance faculty professional development, and lead school communities through remote learning,” school officials say.

Tayloe was the former principal of Alderman Elementary School, a role she had since 2017. She has worked with New Hanover County Schools since 2001 as a principal, assistant principal, and educator.

“Kate is a natural leader for today’s educational demands and GLOW Academy’s unique culture,” GLOW Academy CEO Todd Godbey says. “Her instructional and strategic leadership reinforces GLOW Academy’s vision that ‘She will graduate, go to college and succeed in life.’”
