New leadership is under way at Big Lake Elementary School.
Brian Isakson, former Sedro-Woolley High School assistant principal, will assume his new responsibilities as principal in the fall.
Former Big Lake Principal Rob Guy left the position in June to serve as a science coach for the school district.
Isakson worked at Sedro-Woolley High School for 13 years. He taught science for seven of those years and spent the past six as an assistant principal.
He said he looks forward to being a principal. Although he wasn’t looking for a new post, he said when the position opened he felt it was the right time.
“I feel really ready to take on the new challenge,” Isakson said. “It’s a chance to branch out and grow a little bit.”
