School in moose-dropping prank to get new principal
Principal Bob Kovachik will not be back at Walter Whyte School in September.
Kovachik is on leave from the Grand Marais school after the now-infamous moose dropping incidents during last month’s school canoe trip, when a non-teacher adult volunteer tricked two Grade 8 kids into putting moose droppings in their mouths.
Lord Selkirk School Division superintendent Scott Kwasnitza would not say Friday what has happened to Kovachik, or where he will be in the fall.
"There will be a new principal at walter Whyte School effective the start of the 2012-2013 school year," Kwasnitza said in an interview.
The new principal has not been named, Kwasnitza said.
