LET’S GO STAGS! 🦌🔥
Berkeley High School proudly congratulates Principal Heather Driggers Ducker on her selection to the inaugural Goose Creek High School Athletic Hall of Fame.
A Goose Creek alumna and former multi-year softball standout who went on to compete for the College of Charleston, Mrs. Ducker has carried the lessons of the diamond into a distinguished career as an educator and leader.
As a student-athlete at Goose Creek High, Mrs. Ducker helped lay the program foundation that continues to influence Gators softball today. She then starred at the College of Charleston (NCAA Division I), where she anchored the infield and still appears in the Cougars’ record books for defensive excellence—most notably ranking among the program’s single-season leaders in assists (148 in 1999; 142 in 1998), and featuring in archived box scores and game notes throughout her 1998–99 seasons.
Following college, Mrs. Ducker returned home to serve 10 years as a social studies teacher—two at Sedgefield Middle and eight at Goose Creek High—before moving into administration as an academy coach and then assistant principal at Goose Creek High. She became principal of Sedgefield Middle School, where her leadership earned district-wide recognition as the 2023 Berkeley County School District Secondary Principal of the Year. In September 2023 she was tapped to lead at Berkeley High as interim principal, and in June 2024 was officially named Principal of Berkeley High School
Today, as Principal of Berkeley High School, Mrs. Ducker’s impact is felt in classrooms, on fields and courts, and throughout our Moncks Corner community—championing academic rigor, student-athlete success, and the character-building values that sports uniquely teach.
We congratulate Principal Ducker on this Hall of Fame honor—a full-circle celebration of a Goose Creek Gator whose competitive spirit and commitment to excellence now inspire the next generation of Berkeley Stags.
