One of the things that uh really interested me when I first started talking with Kirk was he shared of his experience at Northton where he was hired the district eventually became an elementary school principal was a elementary principal for one of his three neighborhood elementary schools. And it was determined that they were going to
002unify all those buildings into one North Roy elementary school and they had named him principal in advance of doing that. So he spent a year going to the other two buildings, meeting with teachers, administrators, planning ahead on what changes will come and how to, you know, deal with those challenges. Uh he eventually went the whole district went to the one unified building elementary school and he said they had some roads along the way, but they worked through all those things and coming out the other end of it when you check his references or talk to people who have worked with him, you hear nothing but the work he did there, the positivity and what he did for the schools, staff, students, everybody involved.
