DANVILLE — 'I'm a Hilltopper but don't hold that against me please,' Schlarman grad Michael Gourley told the school board at Wednesday night's meeting, where he was approved as North Ridge Middle School's new principal — two days before the start of classes. Gourley succeeds Eliza Brooks, who announced in May that she'd be leaving the district to become executive director of middle schools in Peoria. Gourley, a former associate principal at Urbana High, has spent the past four years as principal at Morton High.
