[StonyPointEagle] Administrator changes at Jouett, Sutherland, Henley

[Price, Ronnie (Ron)]

	-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

	The media release below related to school administrator changes
was sent out earlier today.  Superintendent Pam Moran that made the
announcements at our meeting last night.  Since some of my constituents
have asked in the past if the School Board makes decisions like this,
I'll take this opportunity (teachable moment as they say) to point out
that we actually do not make these decisions.  While the School Board is
in the loop on any specific school leadership decisions, the hiring and
placing of principals is the job of the Superintendent.  I wish all
these administrators well in their new positions!
