MNPS Announces Additional Principal Appointments for 2009-2010
Several Metro Schools will be under new leadership this fall, with the district announcing additional principal placements for 15 elementary schools, five middle schools and one high school. While some of the changes were made to fill vacancies created by retirements or the fresh starting of a school, others were prompted by openings created through transfers of principals into new positions. All were made under the recommendation of the associate superintendents for elementary, middle and high schools and are intended to put a strong leader with the right skills into the school that best fits his/her abilities, leadership style and expertise.
The elementary appointments include:
Roxie Ross to Whitsitt from Eakin
Dr. Carlos Comer to J.E. Moss from Caldwell
Alison Effinger to Eakin from J.E. Moss
