By John Tredrea, Staff Writer
   There will be a new vice principal at Hopewell Valley Central High School.
   He is Lyndell Davis, 31, a veteran educator in Pennsylvania public schools.
   The Hopewell Valley Regional Board of Education voted unanimously Monday night to appoint Mr. Davis. His appointment is effective Oct. 22. His annual salary will be $102,500.
   Mr. Davis, of Philadelphia, Pa., replaces Kat D’Ambra, who recently left Central High School to become vice principal at Moorestown High School. Her departure came soon after that of John Bach, who resigned as assistant superintendent of schools here to work in Moorestown.
   Mr. Bach began his career at Hopewell Valley in 1998, when he became principal of Central High School. He took the post of assistant superintendent here in January 2004.
   The incoming vice principal taught social studies at George Washington High School in Philadelphia from 1999-2003. From 2003 to 2005, he taught social studies at Norristown Area High School.
   Mr. Davis has spent the last three years as assistant principal of Upper Moreland High School in Willow Grove, Pa. At Upper Moreland, he has been responsible for student activities and student management and served as a representative for special education services and on the Upper Moreland School District Instructional Leadership Committee.
   A 1998 graduate of Bloomsburg University where he majored in secondary education social studies, he received his master’s degree in secondary administration with a principal’s certificate from Cheyney University in 2005.
   Mr. Davis is married and has two children.
