DOUBLE SPRINGS - Changes in administration are underway at elementary schools in Double Springs and Lynn,  in preparation for a new year for Winston County Schools, starting for students August 7.
Sharon Baughn has moved from principal at Double Springs Elementary to principal at Lynn Elementary. Replacing Baughn at DSES will be Lori Bowling, who will be transferring from her duties as teacher and counselor at Meek Elementary. Each of these changes will be effective July 1.
The Winston County Board of Education approved these changes in administration along with other personnel items at a recent meeting, setting the pace for the new year, according to Winston County Schools Superintendent Jeff Scott.
Last year, Michael Nanny was transferred from LES principal to the job of special education coordinator for the school system, Scott explained.
Kevin Armstrong, who had been assistant Lynn High School principal, had been  moved into the LES principal’s role on an interim basis, but has since left to take a job as a teacher at Red Bay, school officials explained.
