Mrs. Lee Ann Jones
Hello! I'm so happy to be a part of the RSES staff. I began my CCPS career in August 2006 at the Central Office working in Human Resources. I worked in HR for 9 years and then accepted a transfer to RSES to be closer to family and home and also for the opportunity to work in the school environment. I am constantly learning and growing along with the students in our school and every day is a new and wonderful experience.
I have an amazing grandson that I enjoy spending time with. My hobbies include crocheting, reading, and watching the Hallmark Channel.

Hello everyone, I am currently working on my 18th year with Rising Sun Elementary School and have worked as a secretary for 32 years. I was previously employed with Mercantile County Bank and moved to Rising Sun Elementary School when my family and I built our home here in Rising Sun, Maryland. My husband David and I have two amazing children Emily and Jackson. Our first grandchild Hallie Jo was born in February 2024. In our spare time we love spending time with family and gardening.
