LMS Principal Eric Johnson to Join WHS Community!


As you may know from the recent messages sent from our school and the Laconia Superintendent’s Office, I will be resigning as your Principal at Woodland Heights, effective June 30th.  Although with obvious mixed emotions about leaving the tremendous school that we have worked so hard to build over the past four years, I knew that that the opportunity to work in such a unique and special school would attract a very strong, capable educator to serve as your next Principal at Woodland Heights School.  It did!!  We are very pleased to share news with you that the extremely talented and acclaimed Principal of the Laconia Middle School, Eric Johnson, will be joining the Woodland Heights School Community as your next principal beginning on July 1st.  Principal Johnson has been an educational leader in the Laconia School District for the past six years (four at the highly regarded Elm Street School, and the last two at the Laconia Middle School).  Our staff members were excited to hear this great news for WHS, as it means we will have a strong, capable, and experienced leader for your school at Woodland Heights in the years to come.  We will be welcoming Principal Johnson to Woodland Heights for a special day of visiting with staff and parents on Monday, April 14th — we’ll get more information out to you soon about what this day will look like, and when you can come in to meet Principal Johnson at WHS this coming Monday.  Congratulations, Principal Johnson, and congratulations, WHS!!  As it has been, it will continue to be:  Woodland Heights, your future looks bright!!
