Bridget Leatherman
My name is Bridget Leatherman and I am honored to be the Principal at May Elementary School. I am originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and moved to Las Vegas to be a 4th grade teacher in 1998. Since then, I have taught and served as an assistant principal in several schools throughout the Clark County School District. In 2012, I was privileged to be hired as the principal at May Elementary School.
May Elementary School is an amazing place to work and learn. I continue to be amazed every day at how hard all of the staff and students continue to work on setting goals and focusing on achieving to be the best. From News Crew, Cheer Team, Dance Team, Basketball, Choir, there are so many ways to be involved at May.
Our focus is aimed to ensure that all students are learning at a high level and experience academic excellence. We also strive to instill the essential character traits to assist all students to become successful citizens in this society.
As the principal at May Elementary School, I value parental engagement and believe that your participation is vital as we work together as a team to provide the most positive educational experience for your children. I am proud to say that the staff at May will continue to make every effort to provide your children the best education possible so that they can succeed academically and personally throughout their life.
Melissa Mingo
I am excited to extend a warm welcome to all of our students, families, and staff as we begin a new school year together! My name is Melissa Mingo, and I am honored to serve as the Assistant Principal at Ernest J. May Elementary School.
I have been an educator for 15 years, and this is my fifth year serving as an Assistant Principal with the Clark County School District. Prior to becoming an administrator, I had the privilege of working as both a classroom teacher and a reading strategist. Throughout my career, I have remained passionate about helping students reach their full potential and supporting teachers in creating engaging and meaningful learning experiences.
On a personal note, my husband, Greg, and I have been married for over 30 years and are proud parents of three children and grandparents of two wonderful grandchildren. Family is very important to me, and some of my favorite moments are spent making memories with them. I also enjoy watching classic movies, reading, and cheering on my favorite college football teams.
At Ernest J. May Elementary School, we are committed to creating a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment where every student feels valued, respected, and empowered to succeed. I value the strong partnerships between schools and families and believe that collaboration is essential to student success. Together, we can provide meaningful learning experiences that inspire curiosity, celebrate diversity, and foster a lifelong love of learning.
I am proud to be a member of the May Marshal family and look forward to an exciting and successful school year. By working together, we can help every student grow academically, socially, and emotionally while creating a positive and memorable school experience.
Go Marshals!
