Jason Stinson

Executive Principal

Twenty years ago, Jason Stinson received his master’s degree in teaching from the University of Louisville (UofL). Six months later he walked into his first classroom at Pleasure Ridge Park High School as a new business education teacher. He’s been at PRP ever since. Stinson is the leader of the school where he’s spent his entire career as an educator. He’s been named the new principal at PRP.

“I am truly blessed to have spent the past two decades working at PRP High School,” Stinson said. “I have had the pleasure of leading an incredible group of students and staff. PRP is my home and I am honored to be the principal of a school with strong traditions and community support.” 

Stinson was a Business teacher at PRP from 2005-2011 and a resource teacher for a year before being promoted to assistant principal. He’s currently the Academy Principal overseeing the Business and Communication Academy at PRP.

He has participated in multiple JCPS leadership development programs during his time with the district. For the past year he has been learning and growing as a participant in JCLA Equity Leadership Cadre, which offers aspiring administrators workshops and programming to introduce them to the duties and expectations of a principal, along with mentoring and internship opportunities.

“Mr. Stinson values education as an open door to the bright future possibilities that lay before each student,” said Dr. Joseph Ellison, assistant superintendent of high schools. “His vision for PRP is founded on service to students and families and high quality, interdisciplinary instruction which leads to increased student achievement. We have faith that Mr. Stinson will deepen high quality learning for the students, fully support the staff, and enrich the legacy of PRP High School.”

In addition to his master’s degree, Stinson completed two bachelor’s degrees at UofL in marketing and management. He attained his Rank 1 certification from Indiana University Southeast in 2010. 

“As a school, we will continue striving for excellence, setting high expectations, and achieving meaningful results,” Stinson said. “By working collaboratively with students, parents, and staff, we will ensure PRP has a safe, inclusive, and equitable learning environment where everyone is valued and supported. We will continuously fan the flame of a strong sense of community, built on a foundation of tradition and pride. With Pride, Respect, and Perseverance, we embody the spirit of PRP. WE ARE PRP.”
