“Mr. Lane comes to us from Oxford High School, and I will say that they did not want to let him go,” King said. “They fought pretty hard on that start date; through a lot of negotiations, we were able to come to some agreement.
“Mr. Lane comes to us not only with experience at the high school level but also middle school and elementary school, as well,” King added. “… We’re excited to have him aboard.”
Lane is currently pursuing a doctorate degree through Liberty University and he will start his new position at HTHS in early December.
“I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity,” Lane said. “I just give my sincere thanks to the school board, to Mr. King, to Dr. Martin, to the staff and the administrative team, to everybody. Words can’t begin to express how grateful I am for the opportunity. I’m looking forward to trying to make the greatest impact I can on this great school and community.”
