After a thorough, three-month process that involved constituent groups from the school, district, and community, the Port Chester Board of Education at its meeting on Feb. 6, 2020, appointed Mr. Luke Sotherden the next Principal of Port Chester High School effective July 1, 2020. Mr. Sotherden will become the 14th Principal of Port Chester High School.
Serving as an Assistant Principal at the high school for just over nine years, Mr. Sotherden emerged from a competitive field of 30 candidates and will provide a valued sense of continuity and consistency because of his experience and knowledge of Port Chester High School, its staff, families and the community. Throughout this process, Mr. Sotherden spoke of his love for the high school, the importance of the sense of "family" that he wants to continue to build here and his vision for making the school a place where all that is done continues to have meaning and purpose. In the next few months, Mr. Sotherden will work closely with current High School Principal, Dr. Combs, to ensure a smooth transition.
Registration for spring sports at Port Chester High School will open next week on Monday, Feb. 10. Athletes wishing to play a sport at Port Chester Middle School will be able to register beginning on Monday, Feb. 17.
