Elba, Alabama - Two principals within the Pike County School system were named finalists in the search for a new Elba City Schools superintendent. Goshen High School Principal Al Griffin and Pike County High School Principal Mike Hall, along with State Rep. Terry Spicer, was selected for the position, were named finalists for the position.
“I have my doctorate, and I have a broad background of 20 years in education,” Griffin said. “I felt I had the background and experience to be a good candidate.”
“When I decided to go back and pursue a doctorate that was one of my goals to become superintendent,” Hall said. “I am very happy where I am, but I wanted to pursue some personal goals.”
I personally believe Birmingham Board of Education needs to follow this step and choose someone from within, that's knows the needs of the system to better equip the system for growth.
