WAYNESBORO, Pa. - The principal at Eastern York High School near York, Pa., has been hired as principal at Waynesboro Area Senior High School, the president of the Waynesboro School Board said Wednesday.
Jon Bilbo will assume the principal job within 60 days, Larry Glenn said.
According to Glenn, Pennsylvania school law allows a school board to keep an administrator on the job for 60 days after an accepted resignation for continuity, provided they are moving to a district within the state.
Bilbo replaces Jami Verderosa, who left to take job in Georgia after serving as principal for three years, Glenn said.
Bilbo will be paid $88,700 per year in Waynesboro, Glenn said.
More than 10 candidates applied for the job, Glenn said. Bilbo was selected because of his leadership, self-confidence, work ethic and integrity, Glenn said.
