Madisonville, KY – Madisonville-North Hopkins High School principal Chad Burgett officially resigned last week. Assistant Superintendent Linda Zellich says Burgett wrote his letter of resignation at the beginning of June, citing health issues as his reason for leaving. The former principal asked to be reassigned to a middle school teaching position. Zellich says Superintendent James Stevens hopes to have a new principal in place by mid-July.
