>Ridgewood High School Principal Jack Lorenz resigns
November 17, 2011 – Superintendent of Schools Dr. Daniel Fishbein has announced the resignation of Ridgewood High School Principal Jack Lorenz, effective December 31, 2011.
“Jack is one of the most creative, committed and visible school principals with whom I have had the pleasure to work,” said Dr. Fishbein. “In his time at Ridgewood High School we have seen an increase in programs for all students. Most recently his efforts to develop the S.A.I.L. program for students with disabilities earned him an award from the Bergen County Division on Disability Services. I am sure that, with Jack’s love of learning and commitment to the education of all students, he will be extremely successful in his next endeavor. I wish him the best.”
Mr. Lorenz has been Principal of Ridgewood High School since July 2006. He came to the district from Highland Park High School in Highland Park, IL, where he was Principal.
The Board of Education is expected to officially approve Mr. Lorenz’s resignation at its November 21 Regular Public Meeting, after which the Superintendent and the Board together will take the next step of developing short and long-term transition plans for the high school administration. These plans will focus on the process and implementation of interim leadership and recruitment.
