OVMS families,
I have taken a new position as the Principal of Tzouanakis Intermediate School in Greencastle. The S-OCS Board approved my resignation at their meeting tonight.
This is a bittersweet time for me as I leave my alma mater and the only district I have worked in as a teacher and administrator.
Mr. Cline, Mr. Arthur, and I will be working to develop a transition plan that ensures the well-being of OVMS students and staff. I will do whatever it takes to make sure this goes smoothly.
I will miss being a part of the OVMS family but will always be an OV Patriot!
Thank you,
Lisa Eldridge
