Princeton board appoints Lisa Caudill as Littlebrook Elementary principal

The Princeton Board of Education on May 9 appointed Lisa Caudill as principal of Littlebrook Elementary School, with the board announcing the appointment and welcoming her to Princeton.

Board members heard from Dr. Jeff Lassousa, who told the board that seven finalists were interviewed and that Caudill stood out for her elementary teaching and leadership experience, including four years at Orchard Hill Elementary School in Montgomery Township where she worked with preschool through second-grade students. Dr. Lassousa said Caudill’s experience with large early‑grade cohorts and her reputation in the field informed his recommendation.

After the recommendation, the chair moved to appoint Caudill and the motion carried on the board’s roll call. The board then gave Caudill a brief opportunity to address the meeting; she thanked the board and families, described schools as places that welcome risk and support growth, and said she was “honored and very excited to be appointed” and eager to begin work in Princeton.

Why it matters: Littlebrook’s new principal will lead early‑grade instruction and shape curriculum and school climate for young learners; the appointment comes before the July 1 effective start date announced by the administration.

Board action: The board approved the appointment during the meeting; the chair announced that the motion carried and welcomed Caudill. No specific vote tally beyond the roll‑call confirmation was recorded in the public transcript.

Caudill’s remarks and the board’s brief introduction concluded with thanks to family members who attended and a welcome from the board.
