Sequim: Four of district’s five schools get new principals

Here’s the new lineup of principals:

* Shawn Langston, former assistant principal at Ballou Junior High School in Puyallup, takes over the helm of Sequim High School.

* Mark Willis, former high school assistant principal and a finalist for the principal’s position, is the new principal at Sequim Middle School.

* Laura Anderson, middle school principal for the past two years, is the new principal at Sequim Community School.

* Veteran administrator Dan Estvold of Stanwood is the new principal of Greywolf Elementary School in Carlsborg.

Ken Lemley remains as principal at Helen Haller Elementary School.
