A new merged position will take the place of another at the Mid-Prairie Middle School. The school board unanimously voted to make the current Dean of Students position the new assistant principal and assistant activities director position. The assistant principal and assistant activities director will be covered by one person. Currently, the Dean of Students position is only part time, and with the new assistant principal and activities director title, it will become a full time position open up for applicants. Nathan Carlson is the current Dean of Students who shares his time between Mid-Prairie and another school. Superintendent Mark Schneider says Carlson is free to apply for the new position if he chooses to do so, and it will be open to other applicants as well.
