Jaren Bollinger, Associate Principal

Hello, Bulldogs!

It is my privilege to serve Magnolia High School as your Associate Principal. This is my fourth year in the district and my twenty-first year in education. I believe the landscape of education is evolving and I am energized by the possibilities it brings. Together, we can work through this change to collaborate and foster a culture of excellence and inspiration for the students and community of MHS. Before working in Magnolia, I served as an Assistant Principal in Klein ISD.

Beyond the school walls, my world revolves around my loving family - a supportive husband of seventeen years, a vibrant twelve-year-old daughter, and an energetic nine-year-old son. They are my pillars of strength, grounding me in the beautiful chaos of family life. We love going camping and challenging each other to almost any card or board game available. And, if they ever let us all on the Wheel of Fortune...look out!

Should there be a need, please feel free to reach out to me via email. I look forward to working with you.

Go Dogs!

Howdy Dogs!

I am excited to serve as your Assistant Principal here at Magnolia High School. I have 23 years of experience in education as a teacher, coach, and administrator. Previously I served in Cy Fair ISD, but feel very blessed to have made it to the greatest district in the state of Texas!

When not at school, my life is constantly on the go, spending time with my wife of 23 years, and 5 kids who also are involved in Magnolia ISD schools. My interests away from school include fishing, playing the guitar, and supporting local sports teams like the Astros and Texans - And if you haven't guessed it by the greeting, I am an Aggie (class of 2001). Gig’em Ags!!

Each and every day, I enjoy serving and supporting the community, parents, and especially the students of Magnolia ISD. If you ever have a question or concern, please feel free to contact me by email or phone.

Thanks,

and Go Dogs!
