Kingsley began her career with the district in 1986 as a teacher at Booker Elementary School for High Expectations, which would later become a part of Emma E. Booker Elementary.
From there she served as an assistant principal at Emma E. Booker and Laurel Nokomis and as principal at Fruitville Elementary before being named assistant superintendent.
