Lucy Potter will be the permanent principal of Glacier Valley Elementary School, after holding the position on an interim basis.

Former Glacier Valley Principal Ted Wilson was promoted to director of teaching and learning with the Juneau School District last summer.

Potter was one of three finalists who interviewed for the job last week.

Potter first joined the district in 1999 and has taught at Harborview Elementary School and Auke Bay Elementary School. She then served three years as a K-5 instructional coach, working with the staff at Gastineau Elementary School and Mendenhall River Community School.

Potter holds a masters of education from the University of Alaska Southeast. She has a bachelor of science in elementary education with a minor in psychology from Adams State University in Colorado.
