SUTTON — Sutton High School principal Ted McCarthy said he is “very honored’’ to have been named the 2021-22 High School Principal of the Year by the Massachusetts School Administrators’ Association.
But as far as he is concerned, the entire school community deserves the recognition.
“It’s not a ‘me’ award,’’ he said. “It’s a ‘we’ award.’’
“I’m lucky to work with a great group of teachers and students,’’ he said. “I always say I have the best job in the world, and I do.’’
The award is presented to high school principals who “demonstrate exemplary skills in instructional leadership, supporting a safe learning environment and fostering a collaborative culture of shared decision making among all members of their school community,’’ according to material provided by the MSAA.
