As the search begins for Lehman High’s next principal, some parents feel whoever obtains the role will have big shoes to fill.

That was the feeling among stakeholders during a workshop held June 5 at Lehman High where district officials gathered input on the traits necessary for the next Lobo leader. Whoever is hired will be the fifth principal to lead the school within the last decade.

The workshop was held roughly three weeks after Denisha Presley, who had served as the school’s principal for the past two years, was hired as principal at San Marcos High. Many parents credited Presley with promoting high academic achievement and attendance rates over the last few years. Teachers and parents say they expect the trend to continue with their next leader.
