NEWARK ARTS PRINCIPAL NAMED NEW SOUTH ORANGE MIDDLE SCHOOL CHIEF


Lynn A. Irby
The school board on Monday night formally hired a new principal for South Orange Middle School following the surprise resignation in June of former SOMS leader Joseph Uglialoro.

Lynn A. Irby, who is a Columbia High School alum, comes to the district from Newark's Arts High School, where she had been principal since 2011. She was officially hired Monday night and told the board she was "excited to be here," later adding the school needs to "restore a lot of things."

Also appointed at the same meeting was a new student representative to the board, Nina Kambili, a CHS student who replaces the recently graduated Maggie Kritzberg.
