I have "Principal Shuffle" The principals of Glebe's three Ottawa Board Schools will be leaving the area at the end of the school year. Their departure is part of a city-wide "principal shuffle". Mr King, currently at Glebe Collegiate, is being transferred to Canterbury High School to begin his term as principal there in September 1979. Mr Zadow will be going to Woodroffe Elementary School from a six year stint at Mutchmor. And Mr Wing leaves First Avenue School, after two years,ifor Elgin Street School. Mr Zadow enjoyed his tenure at Mutchmor and found the experience "very rewarding. I'm going to miss the community," he stated. Mr King found the Glebe community to be "very well organized and aware. People were never afraid to pick up the phone and complain to me." Mr Wing also enjoyed his time at First Avenue, finding it interesting and rewarding. He was pleased with the excellent cooperation he received from the community. "There were always people ready to help," he said. By September, the Glebe will be welcoming three new principals.
