Kelly Cavanaugh has been selected as the new principal of Oliver Ames High School. The announcement came on Tuesday, when superintendent Dr. Cabral released an email to the community. In it, Dr. Cabral said that Ms. Cavanaugh “has graciously and gratefully accepted pending successful contract negotiations which will commence immediately.”
The final choice was difficult, and both candidates had a 2 hour-long meeting “to dive deeply and thoroughly into specific ideas, competencies, examples, and beliefs of both of these competent professionals. Even though Mr. Sperling was a great candidate, Ms. Cavanaugh was selected based on the needs of OA.
Overall, we are all excited to welcome our new principal to OA.
