The Limestone County Board of Education voted Tuesday to swap two principal positions in the Limestone County School System.

The decision means Elkmont High School Principal Mickey Glass will move to the Limestone County Career Technical Center and Principal Stan Davis will transfer to Elkmont.

“Mr. Glass, Mr. Davis and I have been discussing a possible change for about two months,” Superintendent Barry Carroll said. “Although change can be hard, we believed it was in the best interest of both principals.  I have the utmost respect and confidence in Mr. Davis and Mr. Glass.  I know both of them will do an outstanding job in their new positions.”

Carroll said he also made a recommendation Tuesday for Glass, Davis, Billy Owens at Tanner High School, Harold Johns at Cedar Hill Elementary and Donald Wilson at Clements High School to receive a 2 percent raise and three-year contracts. The board voted 3-2 against the recommended raises. However, all five principals received three-year contracts.

• Hiring Davis Architects to perform land utilization study on approximately 50 acres at West Limestone School at a cost of $7,500;
