Since Dr. Mara Hoffert’s announced departure from West Bloomfield High School, the search has been on for a new assistant principal.

The school posted a job offer, upon which 155 candidates showed interest. 21 of these candidates were interviewed earlier this week, in hopes of choosing one to eventually take over the position of assistant principal in February.

The interview process was conducted by a thirteen person panel comprised of WBSD staff, administration, student representative Adam Ben-Moche, and parents. After much consideration, the final decision was made yesterday.

WBHS is proud to announce Mrs. Ashleigh Larkin as the school’s new assistant principal!
