Three campuses in the Forsyth County Schools system will be getting new principals for the 2016-17 school year.

Current Big Creek Elementary School assistant principal Laura Webb will take over as principal when current head Sherri Black retires at the end of the school year.

Sarah Von Esh, the current assistant principal at Daves Creek elementary, will become principal at Settles Bridge elementary. She succeeds Lee Anne Rice, who’s moving to Cumming Elementary School.

In addition, Todd McClelland will become principal of North Forsyth Middle School. He’s the current assistant principal at Piney Grove middle and replaces Jeff Hunt, who’s moving to human resources.

They’re among a total of nine principal appointments for the fall announced by the district.
