Rowan Elementary School welcomed a new principal this week.

Tina Wentz was appointed to her role Tuesday morning, replacing Nannette Farmar, who retired earlier this month. Wentz has served as acting principal at Rowan Elementary since August.

“It is an honor to be selected as principal of Rowan Elementary School and to be entrusted to lead a school with such a strong commitment to academic achievement and holistic student development,” Wentz said. “I am excited to continue working with the dedicated staff, outstanding students and supportive families that make up the Rowan community. Together, I am confident that we will continue to build on previous successes and explore new opportunities for growth and innovation.”
