Meet the Principal

Mr. Andy Wahl ('90) is officially joining the middle school team as its principal. While he may be serving in a new building, he is by no means new to the District.

A Pal-Mac alum, Mr. Wahl has been a part of the team for 15 years, as he's proudly served as the principal across the parking lot at the high school. He will continue to serve in a dual-role between the buildings.

Mr. Wahl says he is excited to expand his role to support both our middle and high school students, working alongside Mr. Fralick at the Middle School and Mr. Engels at the High School under our new unified 6-12 leadership model.

Below is a message for the middle school parents and families from Mr. Wahl:

Dear Pal-Mac Middle School Students and Families,

I am thrilled to introduce myself as 6-12 Principal. As a proud Pal-Mac graduate and the High School Principal for the past 15 years, I am genuinely excited to expand my role, supporting both our middle and high school students alongside Mr. Fralick at the Middle School and Mr. Engels at the High School.

We are moving to a unified 6-12 leadership model to better support your student’s entire journey—from their early days at Pal-Mac Primary and Intermediate all the way to graduation. By aligning our mission across these grades, we are committed to ensuring every student benefits from:

  • Strong academic and social-emotional support, including guidance to help students identify and explore their passions as they prepare for college, the military, or a career.
  • A more consistent and supportive school experience.
  • Greater access to all our campus resources.


I am truly looking forward to connecting with you and your students. We can’t wait to start this exciting new chapter together at Pal-Mac Middle School!

My time away from school is filled with many activities, including travel, golf, and cheering on my favorite sports teams, especially Pal-Mac.

Please join us in welcoming Mr. Wahl to the middle school family!
