COLUMBIANA — A Carrollton administrator has been chosen to fill the Crestview High School principal position.

The board of education approved the hiring during its regular meeting this month, filling the role previously held by Greg Woolman.

Caleb Crowl will begin serving as the new high school principal on Aug. 1, on a two-year contract with the district.

Crowl was one of many who applied and was most recently serving as athletic director for the Carrollton Local School District.

Prior to that he was the Carrollton middle and high school assistant principal for six years.

Crowl is a graduate of Lisbon High School and received his undergraduate degree in education from the University of Mount Union and his administrative license from Muskingum University, Crestview officials said.

“We’re excited to welcome Caleb to Crestview High School,” District Superintendent Dan Hill said. “His background in athletics, combined with his administrative experience within the middle school and high school setting will be a great addition to our team at Crestview Local. With his leadership background we are confident that he will continue our mission to lead our students to success.”

Crowl and his wife currently reside in Carrollton with their daughter.

In other matters, Hill wished to thank Eric Hall and Boy Scout Troop 70 for the donation for benches celebrating the legacy of Benny Gonzalez.

“The creation of leaders he represented through working with young men is a lasting impression on our community. We Thank Troop 70 and the Hall Family for leading this initiative,” Hill said.
