Donald Casey Kuhn has been chosen as interim assistant principal at Springfield High School, replacing Margaret Thompson, who is retiring.

Kuhn comes to the district from Arizona where he has served in education since 2008.  He has most recently been the assistant principal at Thompson Ranch Elementary School in Surprise, AZ, a position he held for the past 4 years.

A graduate of Adams State College in Alamosa, CO, Kuhn earned his master’s degree in Physical Education from Arizona State University Polytechnic in 2012, and is currently enrolled in the doctoral program in Organization Leadership at Grand Canyon University in Phoenix, AZ.

This will be Kuhn’s first position with Robertson County Schools and he said he is looking forward to his new responsibilities.

“I am extremely grateful and humble to be a part of the Springfield High and Robertson County community,” he said. “I look forward to meeting everyone and supporting the positive culture at SHS!”

Director of Schools, Dr. Chris Causey, announced Kuhn’s new role on Thursday, Aug. 1, saying, “We are proud for him to join our family.”
