Orchard Park’s new principal

Oconee native and Walhalla High graduate Kerri King is the new principal at Westminster’s Orchard Park Elementary School.  She started her career as a 4th-grade teacher at Oakway Intermediate School, who began work at Orchard Park in 2016 as a reading coach and later became assistant principal.  Dr. Thorsland, district superintendent, says King’s hiring is an example of the district “growing” its own leaders.
