Rio hires a new middle/high school principal

What happened
The May 18 agenda lists the resignation of the middle/high school principal, Matt Davis. After a June 4 closed-session interview, the June 15 agenda lists Laura Krause-Emerick as the new middle/high school principal. By September she is named as principal on district notices.
Why it matters to families
The principal runs day-to-day life at the middle and high school, so a change in leadership matters to students and families.
The evidence
Agendas for May 18 and June 15 list the resignation and hiring; district letterhead on the Sept. 9 notice names Ms. Krause-Emerick as MS/HS principal.
