Hello! My name is Ashley Lemaster and I am the Principal of Porter Elementary. I am originally from Johnson County and I currently live in Paintsville with my son Luke. In 2009, I graduated from the University of Kentucky. Shortly thereafter, I moved to Alaska and began my teaching career. I taught for two years in Anchorage, Alaska and then moved to Goldsboro, North Carolina where I taught First Grade for another two years. After several years of traveling, I finally decided it was time to come home to Eastern Kentucky! Porter Elementary welcomed me with open arms and I fell in love with this school. I have served in various roles at Porter including being a First Grade teacher, an Essential Skills teacher, a Leader in Me Lighthouse team co-facilitator, and also as a Curriculum Coach. Teaching and serving the students and families of Porter Elementary has been my absolute passion for almost a decade! I love all of my Porter Panthers and I am so excited to continue serving as Principal of Porter Elementary!
