Goodrich-On Monday night the school board voted 6-0 to hire Brian Eddy as interim high school principal pending the return of David St. Aubin, who remains on extended medical leave.

Board Secretary Dan Keller was absent from the meeting.

Eddy, 35, accepted the appointment and began serving on July 26.

“I’m excited to be part of the Goodrich School District,” he said. “I’m eager to step in as principal and help out anyway I can. It’s exciting to be here and my door is open for students, or staff as the new school year approaches.”

The first day of classes is Sept. 8.

Eddy comes to the high school with nine years administrative experience, serving as principal in the Bentley, Mt. Morris and Morrice Area school districts. He attended the University of Minnesota-Morris and received his B.S. in education and biology from Western Michigan University in May 2003. In 2006, he earned a master’s degree in teaching from Marygrove College. Eddy is a 1999 graduate of Goodrich High School.

Eddy was responsible for Bentley High School, middle school, and alternative programs with about 600 students. In comparison, Goodrich has about 700 students.

“I have every confidence Brian will be an exceptional leader and foster long-lasting relationships with our students, staff and administration,” said Michelle Imbrunone, district superintendent. “Please join me in welcoming Brian back to Goodrich Area Schools.”
