New Gardena High principal

From Paul's story:

An administrator with a penchant for discipline and efficiency will take over as principal at Gardena High, the Los Angeles Unified School District announced Tuesday.

Kevin Kennedy, 59, sought the position after more than six years as assistant principal at Narbonne High School in Harbor City. He starts Monday.

"I believe that Kennedy's leadership skills are well established," said Linda Del Cueto, superintendent of Local District 8.

Kennedy will replace Russ Thompson, who accepted a promotion to become a regional administrator in South Los Angeles.
