He had the responsibility to assist in the closing of both of them, though he was against the closure of each of them.  David's talk will look at the histories of each school, supported by photographs of each building and short stories from his local best sellers, The Principal Chronicles, and The Principal Chronicles Two/Too/II/ As Well.
