Doug Pickett's Bio
I am thankful and privileged to begin my eighth year as principal of Blackhawk Christian Intermediate. My wife, Stefanie, and I have been married for 28 years. Stefanie assists in high school youth ministry (The Movement) at Blackhawk Ministries. She also works as a study hall monitor at BCS. We have five children. Mason, 24 (Second year law school student at Indiana University in Indianapolis); Clayton, 22 (Senior at Manchester College). He studies criminology and plays collegiate baseball; Kellen 19 (Freshman at Wright State). His intended major is undecided and he plays collegiate basketball; JaeLyn, 16 (Sophomore at BCS); and Quinnlyn, 13 (Eighth Grader at BCS).
I was born and raised in New Haven, IN. Prior to coming to Blackhawk Christian Intermediate, I spent 20 years as a public school educator. I spent 16 years at New Haven Middle School and New Haven High School as a teacher, dean of students, assistant principal, and principal. I enjoy spending time with my family, exercising, reading God's Word, reading, and following sports. My favorite book of the Bible is Colossians, and my favorite verse is Romans 12:2 "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is-his good, pleasing and perfect will."
