New Middle School Principal
We are pleased to announce the appointment of Ms. Mandy Braun as the principal of the new middle school, opening for the 2007-2008 school year. Ms. Braun has successfully served as Flood's principal for two years and has the ability to provide the necessary leadership to take the new middle school in a positive direction. With the current two middle schools combining, Ms. Braun will be instrumental in implementing the new middle school programs and creating a positive environment as the District merges staff and students. The Board of Education and the Leadership Team look forward to the successful implementation of many new options for students at the new school. They are confident that Ms. Braun will provide creative and positive leadership.
