Fredrick Pierce’ Biography
I was born and raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and earned a bachelor’s degree in English with an emphasis in Secondary Education from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. I would later pursue and complete my Graduate Degree program in Leadership in Education with an emphasis in Higher Education from Capella University. My passion in life is to see students and staff reach their full potential through hard work and relationship building. I believe that it is essential for everyone to understand their “why”, to get to their place of success and purpose. I love to spend time with my family and watch a plethora of different sports but I enjoy baseball and football the most. My time coaching high school basketball, football and softball were some of the most exciting times in my life and I have a passion for coaching. Coaching my sons in baseball from little league through All Stars and early travel ball are some of the most memorable and cherished times.
I joined the ECA team in June of 2022. My previous experience in educational leadership makes me excited for what’s to come here at ECA. I come with 5+ years of experience as a Head of School, 4 years as a Middle School and High School Principal and multiple years in other leadership endeavors in K-12 education and adult education. I also have a passion for working hard in the community through different community-based organizations. I’m excited to be in North Carolina and at ECA!
