Assistant Principal, Laurie Coburn
Hello! My name is Mrs. Coburn and I am so excited to be a part of the Clay High School family! I have been an educator for 28 years and have been a teacher, coach, Dean, Athletic Director and Assistant Principal. I will be the 9th grade administrator and have many other responsibilities, so if you need help, please let me know and either I will assist you, or will get you to the right place..
Education is one pathway to success by giving those who choose to walk it, a choice in their future. It is my calling to assist students, in concert with parents, to discover their gifts and talents, hone them into usable tools and teach them how to use them effectively with the goal of sending them on their way toward success.
I am privileged to have the opportunity to work with the future leaders of the world and I hope, in some small measure, I can help students have a positive impact and make their world a better place for all..

Welcome students, parents, and stakeholders,
I am honored to serve as Assistant Principal at Clay High School. I’d like to introduce myself to you. Please feel free to reach out at any time if there is anything I can help you with.
I have worked in education for 17 years, 15 of which have been in Clay County. I am a graduate of Florida State University and received a master’s degree in Educational Leadership from the University of North Florida. I hold certifications in Exceptional Student Education, Middle Grades Integrated Studies, Business Education, Educational Leadership, as well as certifications in Educational Leadership and a School Principal certification.
I began my career in Clay County as a Language Arts teacher and have held various teaching roles including ESE Support Facilitator and Reading Coach. As a teacher leader, I facilitated professional development programs centered on supporting students with learning disabilities, content-area reading, and adolescent literacy. I also served the Clay County School District as the Secondary English/Language Arts Curriculum Specialist. In this role, I helped transition the district into new ELA standards and curriculum and developed district curriculum guides and assessments. I then assumed the role of Assistant Principal at Lake Asbury Junior High School before transitioning to Clay High School last school year as Assistant Principal. I am an avid sports fan and can often be seen attending Clay High sporting events. Go Blue Devils!
The faculty and staff at Clay High School is dedicated to providing you and your child with the best high school experience possible. Please do not hesitate to reach out if there is anything we can do to help make this school year the very best it can be!
