Three more East Cobb principals were appointed by the Cobb Board of Education Thursday night.
Adam Hill is returning to East Cobb after two years as principal at Nickajack Elementary School. The former principal of Timber Ridge Elementary School has been named the new principal at Dickerson Middle School, succeeding retiring principal Dr. Carole Brink.
Brink, named the Middle School Teacher of the Year last week by the Georgia PTA, was recognized by the board Thursday.
In remarks near the end of the board’s short meeting, Post 6 school board member Scott Sweeney, who represents the Dickerson area, said Hill “has big shoes to fill.”
East Side Elementary School will be getting a new principal after longtime principal Elizabeth Mavity was appointed an assistant superintendent for the Cobb County School District.
Her replacement is Maria Clark, who had been an assistant principal at Mt. Bethel Elementary School.
The new principal at Shallowford Falls Elementary School is Donna Long, currently an assistant principal at Murdock Elementary School. She succeeds Felicia Angelle, now the CCSD’s academic division director of instruction, innovation, teaching and learning.
Their appointments are effective July 1. Walton, Sprayberry, Daniell and Tritt also will have new principals.
