Calloway County High names Mallory as new principal

Calloway County High School will have a new principal following the Christmas break.

In a social media post Tuesday, the school announced Mark Mallory will become principal replacing interim Steve Smith, who had served following the resignation of Bobby Love earlier this fall.

Mallory has been the principal of Southwest Calloway Elementary School for the last eight years. Before that, Mallory was an assistant principal at Graves County High School for three years. He was an English teacher at Graves County High School for six years before becoming an administrator.

“Mr. Mallory has proven himself to be an exceptional leader at Southwest, and I am confident that he will do an outstanding job as the principal of CCHS,” Superintendent Tres Settle said. “He brings a wealth of high school and leadership experience to his new role, and I’m excited to see what he and the staff at CCHS will achieve together.”

Mallory is a current member of the Leadership Murray class with the Murray-Calloway Chamber of Commerce. He is a 2020 graduate of the Kentucky Chamber of Commerce’s Leadership Initiative for Principals. In the community, Mallory is on the board of directors for Playhouse in the Park, a Calloway County Library trustee, and on Murray State University’s Internal Review Board.

"Strong schools are built through positive relationships, clarity of expectations, and intentional systems,” said Mallory. “I am incredibly excited to work with the staff and administration of Calloway County High School to create opportunities and provide support for our students as they prepare to step into the next significant chapter of their lives."

Mallory is originally from Christopher, IL. He and his wife, Heidi have two sons, Henry and Max.
