The final principal

vacancy in the Fayette County School System for the 2001-02 academic year

was filled last week, as Roy Rabold was named to the top job at Sandy

Creek High School.

The appointment

of Rabold, an assistant principal at Sandy Creek for eight years, was

officially approved by the Board of Education at its July 13 meeting.

He was previously an assistant principal at McIntosh High School for five

years.

He succeeds

Dr. Charles Warr, who was named principal at Fayette County High School

upon the retirement of Gary Phillips.

"I'm extremely

excited about being the principal here," said Rabold. "I feel

fortunate that I can add to the success of the school. I think it will

be an easy transistion since I've been here for a while and everybody

knows who I am. I'm looking forward to a great and successful year."

capacity, if they so choose.

A letter was
