Faculty & Staff Directory

Hello! I’m Jamie Copsey, principal of Leonardtown High School. It is a privilege to lead a school filled with remarkable students, dedicated staff, and supportive families. I am truly grateful to be part of a vibrant school community that has a strong legacy of academic excellence and extracurricular success.
I have been fortunate enough to call LHS my home for most of my educational career. Having graduated from LHS in 1998, and then Lynchburg College in 2002, I was thrilled to return to Leonardtown as a physical education teacher and coach in 2003. After teaching and coaching basketball and cross country for seven years at LHS, I stepped away to serve as assistant principal at Margaret Brent Middle School in 2010. I returned to LHS in 2014 as an assistant principal and have been here ever since.
As a parent myself, I understand that the well-being and development of our children are of utmost importance. You can trust that the students of LHS are my top priority each day they walk through our doors.
As a lifelong resident of St. Mary’s County and graduate of Leonardtown High School, I am not only proud to work at LHS, but also to be a part of this community.
Respectfully,
Jamie Copsey
