Based on the response I got last time, I'll begin posting principal changes on the blog as well.
The school board has just announced that Karen Summers will be the new principal of Davis Drive Midle School in Cary. Summers had been slated to be an assistant principal at the new Mills Park Elementary School opening in July.
From 2006 to 2008, Summers was a senior administrator for growth and planning. Before that, she was an assistant principal at West Lake Middle School from 1999 to 2006.
Summers replaces Tina Hoots, who was recently named principal of Wake Forest-Rolesville High School.

Wed, 01/07/2009 - 01:09 — SDR256A senior administrator for growth management - one of the chosen anointed. Replacing Pat Andrews? ... OMG. I'm so glad my kids have escaped. Run away! Run Away! RUN AWAY!
Actually I had the same expectation
Wed, 01/07/2009 - 13:17 — Falcwhen I contacted growth management last year to complain that we'd had to submit our intent to return as a YR applicant form before finding out that our YR assignment option was being changed. They transfered me to Ms. Summers. I found Ms. Summers to be very pleasant, reasonable, responsive and helpful in resolving my concern.
