Two Brown County schools will get new principals next school year.
Abbie Oliver announced her resignation as principal of Sprunica Elementary School last weekend. She has accepted the principal job at Pleasant Crossing Elementary School in the Clark-Pleasant school district.
That same weekend, Brown County High School Principal Shane Killinger expressed interest in the job at Sprunica, Superintendent Laura Hammack said in a letter to parents. That’s the school where his career as a principal began.
Another principal is coming “home” as well. Former BCHS Principal Matt Stark will return to his old job, Hammack reported this morning. He had left the district in 2013 for a principal job in Urbana, Illinois.
Hammack expects the school board to approve these transfers at its next meeting on Thursday, June 7.
“We are thrilled to start this new chapter of leadership in Brown County Schools beginning on July 1, 2018,” Hammack wrote.
“We are excited about these recommendations and are confident that the impact on the experience of our school communities will be positive.”
Read more about the impact Oliver has had on Sprunica in next week’s paper. More information about the other changes will be printed later in June.
