Bower Hill Welcomes a New Principal
On November 17, the Peters Township Board of School Directors voted to hire Mr. Robert Garvey as the new Principal of Bower Hill Elementary School. Mr. Garvey comes to Peters Township from the Bethel Park School District where he is currently the Principal of Ben Franklin Elementary School. He was previously the Assistant Principal at Neil Armstrong Middle School (grades 5-6) for two years and taught at the fifth grade level in Bethel Park for seven years prior. He holds his bachelor’s degree from the University of Pittsburgh, and his master’s degree in Education from Johns Hopkins University.

No official start date has been set for Mr. Garvey at this time, but we will begin his transition to the Bower Hill family as soon as possible. As a Peters Township resident and Bower Hill kindergarten parent, he has already begun to get acquainted with the building and its traditions over the past few months. We look forward to having him join Mrs. Franczyk as they lead the Bower Hill team!
