He holds a Bachelor's in English from Langston University, a Master's in Human Relations from the University of Oklahoma, and a Master's in Educational Leadership from East Central University.
A proud member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc., King has a passion for community service, mentorship, and coaching. He has coached girls' basketball and led step teams, fostering meaningful connections with youth.
King’s greatest inspiration is his 12-year-old daughter, Sarah, a 7th grader, who drives his passion for education each day.
We are thrilled to have King on board as he embarks on his administrative journey with us! Please join us in welcoming him to the Mid-Del family!

🚑📚 When it comes to making a grand entrance, SSM Health St. Anthony Hospital - Midwest knows how to do it!
They rolled up to Country Estates Elementary in an ambulance with lights flashing and sirens blaring, but this time, the emergency was a shortage of school supplies… and they came to the rescue! Our Comet staff was there to greet the crew for this special delivery, and smiles were everywhere. Thank you, SSM Health St. Anthony Hospital - Midwest, for making the 2025–2026 school year a little brighter (and a whole lot more fun)!
Day 1 for the new Mid-Del Reset Team in the books!
For over a year, it has been a dream in the making to create a program specifically designed to support elementary students who are exhibiting Tier 2 behaviors within the classroom and school environment. This year, that dream will become a reality!
Our goal is to provide students with the opportunity to “reset” in a supportive, positive learning environment where the focus extends beyond behavior management to also include mental health, emotional well-being, and family connection.
This 5-week short-term placement will serve a small group of students each session who qualify through site-level interventions. The program will also offer ongoing family education and engagement, with support during both the transition into and out of the program. One of the things we’re most excited about is that the entire program will be rooted in TBRI (Trust-Based Relational Intervention) strategies and using HALO curriculum created by the founder & AMAZING Cindy Lee with permissions from the KCPID Institute - creating a trauma-informed, relationship-centered approach that truly meets kids where they are.
Here’s to creating positive change - one student & family at a time! 💫
