Several changes in leadership in Stillwater Area Public Schools began on Thursday and will remain in effect for the remainder of the school year.
Brett Stringer, who has served as interim principal at Brookview Elementary School this winter, assumes the permanent role of principal. He brings more than a decade of experience as a school leader and has built a strong connection with the Brookview community, district officials said.
Malinda Major, who previously served as principal of Brookview, is serving as a principal on special assignment at Stillwater Middle School, with assigned duties as assistant principal.
Kristin Rolling, who has served as the assistant principal at Stillwater Middle School, is now assistant principal of Brookview and Lake Elmo elementary schools. Rolling began her career in Stillwater Schools as a school psychologist at the elementary level, district officials said.
The moves are part of a strategy to “place each administrator in a position where their skills can be most effective,” Superintendent Mike Funk said.
