Hello! I am Lacey Peckham and I proudly serve as principal at Middle Creek High School. I am a former Spanish teacher, with experience at both the middle and high school levels in Wake County Public Schools.  After teaching, I served as an Assistant principal at Sanderson HS, Martin GT Magnet Middle School and as the Assistant Principal of Instruction at Middle Creek High School.  During my tenure at MCHS, I was selected as the WCPSS Assistant Principal of the Year in 2014. In 2015, I was appointed principal at Martin GT Magnet Middle School and served the Martin school staff and community for 5 years before being named as the principal here at “The Creek.”  I love getting to be a part of this #STRONGStable and am proud of the work we do daily to provide quality learning and extracurricular experiences for our students.  When not at school, I enjoy reading, traveling and supporting the NC State Wolfpack and Carolina Hurricanes! Thank you to our amazing staff, families and community members for the unwavering support of our students, each and every day.

Welcome to Middle Creek!  I am originally from Pennsylvania, where I taught Special Education at the middle school level for 7 years and completed my Masters in Teaching and Curriculum and Administrative Certification at Penn State University, Go LIONS!  Once we moved to Raleigh, I taught special education for one year at Martin Middle School and then moved to Middle Creek in 2012 and it has been my home ever since.  Before becoming an AP, I was a Special Education Teacher and Department Chair here in the #STRONGStable.  I love attending all of the events at school and cheering on our Mustangs.  However, when I am not at school, I enjoy spending time with my daughter, going to her events or games, taking my dog, Nittany, for a walk or just reading a good book. 

Goooood morning! I am originally from Michigan but hated the cold so I moved to the south. I received a Bachelor's in Elementary Education and a Masters in school Administration from Central Michigan University. I taught middle school science at East Lee Middle School and was an assistant principal at Harnett Central Middle School before coming to Middle Creek High School.  Outside of school I enjoy going to the gym, coaching and playing Ultimate Frisbee, traveling, and spending time with my friends.

Hello everyone and welcome to The Creek! My name is Jimmy Cucurullo 'Mr. C' and I look forward to working with you this school year. In 2013, I graduated from NC State with a Masters in Teaching in Elementary Education. I spent most of my teaching career in a 4th Grade classroom but have taught at the middle and high school level. Shortly after graduating from UNCW with a Masters in School Administration, I became an Assistant Principal at Middle Creek High School in 2021. When not at school, I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, exercising, and reading a good book.

Hello, Mustang Family! I am a proud native of the All-American city of Fayetteville, North Carolina, where I graduated as a 4th generation student from the historic E.E. Smith Senior High School (Golden Bull Pride!). After graduation, I chose to attend North Carolina Central University (Eagle Pride AMPLIFIED!) where I majored in History and Psychology. I also completed a post-graduate program of study in Social Science at the University of California at Los Angeles (Go Bruins!) and received a master's degree in School Administration from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (TAARRR!). Currently, I am pursuing a doctorate of education degree at Vanderbilt University (Anchor Down!). My school administration experience includes serving as Assistant Principal Intern at Leesville Road Elementary and Assistant Principal at Wake Forest Middle School. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, listening to a good audiobook or podcast and being involved in the community through nonprofit work and my fraternity. You will likely catch me at sporting events and concerts supporting the many talents of our Mustangs. Don't shy away from saying hi! I look forward to serving you and your family here at The Creek!
