Scott Mauk, who resigned his position as teacher-director at the Bayview School last month, will be the new assistant principal at South Whidbey Elementary School in the fall.

District Superintendent Fred McCarthy said Mauk was interviewed late in the week by seven elementary school staff members, one parent and Principal Jamie Boyd.

“The panel rated Scott very highly in all areas and I believe he will be an excellent fit,” McCarthy said. “We think this will be very good for the school, our students and Scott.”
