The Lopez Island School District announced that they have narrowed the search to three candidates who will be interviewed March 11-13 for their open K-12 principal position created by the retirement of Principal Roland MacNichol at the end of this school year. Chosen from an initial pool of twenty-six applicants, each of the three finalists will be interviewed in a day-long process on March 11, 12, and 13. The public, parents and students are invited to a public forum to meet each candidate on each of the three nights, at 5:30 p.m. in the school library. Participants will be asked to fill out a confidential rating sheet on each candidate to further assist the District in making a final decision about who will be the new principal.
