The Park City School District announced two administrative appointments for the 2018-19 school year last week.

According to the district’s website, Traci Evans will serve as the interim associate superintendent for teaching and learning, effective Aug. 1. Evans, who is currently the principal of Ecker Hill Middle School, will replace Kathy Einhorn, who will retire on July 31.

Sam Salinas, the assistant principal at Ecker Hill, will replace Evans as the interim principal. The opening for a one-year assistant principal position will be posted in a few weeks.



Evans has served as principal of the school since 2010.

According to the district, she then earned English as a Second Language (ESL) and Level One Reading endorsements, as well as a master’s degree in elementary reading and literacy.

She served as assistant principal at Jeremy Ranch, where she earned her administrative/supervisory license. Under her direction, Ecker Hill was recognized as a national “School to Watch” for its work of supporting student needs.
