CARROLLTON, GA – A Carrollton High School alum has been named his alma mater’s next principal following unanimous approval by the Carrollton Board of Education Thursday night.
Ian Lyle, assistant principal at CHS and director of the school’s CTAE program, will succeed CHS Principal David Brooks who is retiring this June following a 32-year career in education, 24 serving Carrollton High School.
Lyle has served in his current role since 2017 and quickly established himself as a natural leader, said Dr. Mark Albertus, superintendent, who made the recommendation to the board.
“Mr. Lyle has great judgment and gets things done,” said Albertus. “As someone who grew up in the district, he understands our culture because he’s lived it. Thanks to Mr. Brooks taking the time to mentor him, Mr. Lyle will be able to pick right up and lead this school from day one.”
