Hakim StaffWriter Kate Murray and Terry Flint are the new assistant principals at Grosse Pointe North and South, respectively. Murray, an internal candidate, started as a student teacher at North 15 years ago and teaches Advance Placement Language and Composition. She fills the vacancy left by Matt Outlaw, recently promoted to principal at "She's very well respected amongst the Grosse Pointe North teaching staff, has great vision of where the administration needs to be in providing support to the students, the teachers and the administration," assistant superintendent of human resources and labor negotiations Tom Harwood said. "She's done some phenomenal work with our students who are at-risk in our freshmen assist program, and has been an instrumental person in bringing those youngsters on board and allowing them to be afforded the opportunity to see success in the classroom and outside the classroom." Flint, previously assistant principal at Grosse He High School, replaces Brandon Slope, who resigned in May af- - ter'"the' district charged him with violating the district's technology policy. Flint has eight years experience as an administrator and received his Master of Education degree from Saginaw Valley State University. ''He did present himself very well and was clearly the recommended candidate of the interview team and the recommended candidate of the cabinet." Harwood said. "It came through in our interviews with him and our meetings with him — his passion for working with students, his understanding of the needs of students and his understanding for the teachers and administrative team to provide the best educational opportunities for kids here at South high school." In a little more than a month after the jobs were posted, the district received nearly 200 applications for both positions. "There were many, many people who were eager to join this school district," superintendent Suzanne Klein said. 'And as we heard from colleagues of Mr. Flint and we heard from colleagues of Mrs. Murray, both of them are seen as people who have a very strong vision of what top-quality instruction looks like, are very commuted to making sure our students find success, but also know how important it is to connect with the parents." i Relive the Big Band era and get swinging to the sounds that filled the halls in the Fords' home in the 1930s and 40s with the Johnny Trudell Orchestra.
