Jeff Wethington was named interim principal for College View Middle School for the 2021-22 school year. The decision was made after former principal Jennifer Crume was hired as Director of Secondary Schools for Daviess County Public Schools.
“I look forward to working more closely with teachers as we continually identify student needs and perfect our efforts,” Wethington said. “The work here at College View will be based on continuous improvement in all areas of the educational process and welcoming family and community input to assist with that improvement.”
Wethington formerly served as assistant principal for the school. In his past, he has served as special education admission and release committee chairman, Section 504 Plan chairman, transportation liaison and school safety coordinator.
Crume said the selection of Wethington to lead will be great for the College View community.
“Mr. Wethington makes decisions based on what is best for students,” Crume said. “He has experience and possesses the skill set to form a smooth transition of leadership.”
Wethington began his 25-year career in education in 1997 as a math teacher at Apollo High School. He joined CVMS as assistant principal in 2012. He has a bachelor of arts degree in secondary math education from the University of Kentucky, a master of arts degree in educational administration from Western Kentucky University and a Rank I in the area of director of pupil personnel from WKU.
