Springfield building principal assignments unclear

By Megan Gildow | Friday, June 12, 2009, 05:01 PM

Four new principals were hired by the Springfield school board Thursday night, but those administrators were not assigned to any particular building.

The district has as many building principals as it does buildings at this point, but few of those have officials been assigned. There may be some movements to match skills to building needs, Interim Superintendent Don Thompson said.

Christopher Shaffer was hired to be campus director for the high school, so he will be at Springfield High but at this point other assignments are still being hammered out, according to officials.

As soon as those assignments have been decided, I will write about who is going to what school.
