She earned her Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education from Slippery Rock University, a Master of Education in Educational Technology from Troy University, and an Educational Leadership Endorsement from James Madison University.
A proud member of the Culpeper community, Fiscus lives in Culpeper with her husband and three children, all of whom have attended or currently attend CCPS schools. Outside of work, she enjoys reading, creating Diamond Art, and traveling with her family.
Reflecting on her new role, Fiscus shared her excitement for the opportunity ahead, “After many years serving Culpeper County Public Schools in a variety of roles across several schools, I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to bring those experiences together to help open a school that reflects the very best of our community. I’m especially looking forward to reconnecting with students, families, and colleagues I’ve worked with throughout the division and building new relationships as we create a welcoming school community together.”
Culpeper County Public Schools looks forward to the leadership, vision, and enthusiasm that Angie Fiscus will bring as Mountain Run Elementary School begins its journey as the division’s newest place for learning, growth, and community pride.
