The Weekly Update from Granville Schools - 5/15/26

https://www.granvillecsd.org/article/2908359

An Update Regarding Granville Elementary Leadership

Dear GES Families,

As we move into the final months of the school year, I am writing to share an update regarding our leadership team. Principal Ten Eyck will be concluding her time with Granville at the end of June as she transitions to a new position in another district.

While we are sad to see her leave, we are grateful for the dedication, care, and hard work she has invested in our students, staff, and school community. We wish her all the best in this next chapter and look forward to celebrating the remainder of the school year together and finishing strong at GES.

I understand that Ms. Ten Eyck has been a steady and trusted presence for many of our families and staff. Please know that our priority remains maintaining the stability, support, and positive environment that our students experience each day.

We have already posted the principal opening, and our search process will be thorough and intentional. We are committed to finding a leader who not only demonstrates excellence but is also the right fit for the Granville community and the GES team. While we recognize that this comes later in the hiring cycle, we will not rush the process or settle for just any candidate. Our focus is on finding the best long-term fit for our students, staff, and families.

We will continue to keep you informed as the search progresses. Thank you for your continued support of our students, our staff, and our school community.

Sincerely,

Michael J. Hall
Granville CSD Superintendent of Schools
