Solved: the mystery of where John Schilling went

Well, almost.

After John Schilling was appointed on June 18 to serve as assistant principal at Central Coast High, he instead took a job in San Jose, MPUSD's Sharon Albert told me. She didn't know where he went, though.

Schilling worked at Pioneer High in San Jose since 1995, later becoming assistant principal at two schools up there. He'd been with MPUSD since Aug 2005, first as assistant principal at Monterey High, then as Marina High's principal.


Marina High will now be led by Sean Roach, who previously worked as social studies teacher and coach for the girl's softball team. Second in command will be interim assistant principal Alan Crawford, the former college and career planning specialist at Marina High School and Central Coast High School. He helped design one of the new SAILS academies.

It'll be interesting to see what's in store for Marina High, with such fresh leadership and three academies being unfurled. Stay tuned.
