[dropcap]H[/dropcap]ays CISD leaders earlier this month approved the hiring of Dr. Michael Watson as the new principal for Dahlstrom Middle School.

Watson, who was hired by the district in 2014 as the principal of Live Oak Academy, oversaw a rise in the graduating class at the alternative high school. On average, the campus graduated roughly 40 students per year. In 2017, Live Oak graduated 174 students, which is the largest class in school history.

β€œHe has a winning spirit, incredible talent, and second-to-none passion about students and teamwork,” said Hays CISD Public Information Officer Tim Savoy. β€œI know the Dahlstrom community will love Dr. Watson and great things are on the horizon for the Mustangs.”
