— by Eric C. Webb, Superintendent, Orcas Island School District —
Orcas Elementary School will be under new leadership for the 2016-17 school year. I can assure you that great care will be taken in the selection of the individual that will be working with our students, families, and faculty.
It is entirely possible that it may be necessary to initially hire a talented and experienced interim to fill this position so we may take the time to search for and select the outstanding principal that our students and faculty deserve!
The position will officially open following the July 14 school board meeting.
