Our Assistant Superintendent

A highly respected educational leader with more than 24 years of experience, Dr. Haynie brings a rich background in K–12 administration, classroom instruction and higher education to his new role as assistant superintendent.

Dr. Haynie’s track record of success includes leading Boaz City Schools to nationally ranked student growth in both reading and mathematics, its highest-ever report card rating, and a significant increase in National Board Certified educators. In 2024, his leadership was recognized statewide when he was named District 9 Superintendent of the Year and a finalist for Alabama State Superintendent of the Year.

Dr. Haynie holds a Ph.D. in Educational Administration from Auburn University and is deeply committed to mentoring educators, supporting student achievement and fostering innovation in instructional leadership.

But beyond the titles and accolades, family has always been at the heart of Dr. Haynie’s life. “Outside of my professional responsibilities, I’m fortunate to be part of a close-knit, supportive family that has shaped my values and fueled my dedication to service and education,” said Dr. Haynie. “My wife, Brittany, and I have shared a life grounded in faith, hard work and community. We take great pride in our four children—Briley Kate, Briggs, Brooks, and Braxon—who are all very active in a variety of extracurricular activities.”

In his spare time, Dr. Haynie enjoys staying active in the gym each morning and taking evening walks with his wife. He’s an avid reader of leadership and history books, and he finds balance in moments spent traveling with family, volunteering locally or cheering on his favorite college football team.

“My family is so excited to be joining Oxford City Schools and the Yellow Jacket family,” he added. “The district is known throughout the state for its academic excellence as well as its exceptional tradition. I am honored to help lead the school district and serve in the community as your new Assistant Superintendent. Go Big O!”
