The current principal of Wauka Mountain Elementary School is expected to be confirmed later this month as Director of Elementary Education for the Hall County School District.
Superintendent Will Schofield announced Tuesday that he will recommend Dr. Jo Dinnan for the position. Her name will go before the Hall County Board of Education at its February 8 meeting.
For the past 10 years, Dinnan has served as Wauka Mountain's principal.

In addition, Dinnan is a past president of the Georgia Association of Elementary School Principals for District One.

Dinnan will replace Dave Moody in the post; Moody was recently named Executive Director of Lanier Charter Career Academy/HCSD Leadership Development.
