He actually has he was just principal intern at julius west & he worked at paint branch high school & blake or sherwood i belive...
...but has never been a principal before. Most HS principals are either MS principals first, or do significant time (like 5+ years) as AP/ASA at a high school. He’s done neither. He was intern at a MS for most of the year, then acting at HS level to end the year. He’s was on track to be a MS principal this year, but instead got to jump the track and hit the top of the admin pay scale. Not saying he’s not a good fit or that he’s lacking anything, just stating that he’s a first year principal. He sounds like everyone really likes him, so that’s great. If anything, being a first year might be good for the community, because he’ll have extra evaluations and a consulting principal mentor. Who would probably advise him to contact the police ASAP if a student gets assaulted in the locker room. I hope he does well. As a DHS alum, it’s really sad to see all this negative press to what really is a great community. Most of the time.
