Welcome, Cubs, to the 2026-2027 School Year!

Dear Mount Olive Primary Families,

My name is Lisa Rushing and I am eager to meet and get to know all of you!  

I received my Instructional Leadership and Administration degree from Troy University.  During my time as a teacher, I taught kindergarten at Ridgecrest Elementary and fourth grade at Lakewood Elementary.  As an administrator, I have served at Westview Elementary and Lakewood Primary in Phenix City Schools and  W.S. Neal Elementary in Escambia County Schools.

Phenix City has been home for most of my life.  I have two grown children, four grandchildren and a Labrador Retriever, Buddy Luke. There is nothing I enjoy more than spending time with my family. I also enjoy spending time at church, traveling and supporting my grandchildren in their adventures.

Sincerely,

Lisa Rushing

Principal, Mount Olive Primary School
