Mr. Azimi began working for FCPS in 1998 when he was still a college student.  He would perform hourly/summer work in Human Resources at the old Edsall Park Center and assisted the school administration to open Westfield High School in 2000. 

He began his teaching career soon thereafter and taught first at Waples Mill Elementary School and then at Hunters Woods Elementary School which gave him the opportunity to teach hundreds of amazing students. 

In 2010, Mr. Azimi became an assistant principal at James Madison High School and proudly served there for five years. 

In 2015, he stayed within the Madison pyramid by moving to Thoreau Middle School and has served as the principal of this wonderful school to the present. 

Regardless of his time in elementary, middle or high school, he has always been extremely fortunate to work with terrific students, dedicated colleagues and supportive parents throughout his career in FCPS.
