A familiar face is now in charge of the halls of Stanhope Elmore High School.

The Elmore County Board of Education approved the hire of Wes Dunsieth as principal of the school after Ewell Fuller retired. Dunsieth first came to the school as a teacher and baseball coach. He went to Chilton County and returned to Stanhope Elmore a few years ago as assistant principal. Like a coach and Fuller, Dunsieth is big on relationships with his students and staff.
