Jeff Russell, Wills Point Middle School principal, will become the leader of the High School April 3rd, according to a news release by the district Monday morning. Russell will replace Jeffrey Smith, who Caloss said is leaving for another employment opportunity. 

“We believe Mr. Russell will be a great fit as the principal for our high school,” Superintendent Scott Caloss said. “As the campus principal at the middle school he has shown exemplary leadership skills. He is a wonderful motivator of both students and staff and builds effective relationships with parents and community members. We look forward to his contribution as the instructional leader of the high school campus."
