Yesterday was Principal Appreciation Day.
Avilla Elementary School, North Side Elementary, Rome City Elementary, South Side Elementary, Wayne Center Elementary School, East Noble Middle School and East Noble High School wouldn’t be what they are without great principals. The work of a principal comes in just behind great teachers when it comes to ensuring student success and achievement. But like many roles in education, principals often don’t get enough credit for all the work they do in a day.
Principal Appreciation Day recognizes the hard work that principals do each year as they work to keep the school progressing from year to year. So here is to our amazing principals across East Noble School Corporation!
