         &nbspBeing a teacher, coach and asisstant principal may make the transition to principal easier for Doyle Vogler, but it still came as a surprise.
         &nbspAfter Patrick Cates resigned to take a principalship in Round Rock, Texas, rumors spread about who would be named to the position.
          "I was in shock - It wasn't so much that I had to have the job, but I want Lubbock High to continue the programs here and the sucess with them," Vogler said.
         &nbspVogler does know what he wants Lubbock High to be.
          "I want to create a feeling of a school as a whole, and break down the dividing barrier because we shouldn't be divided into LEAP, AP, IB and regular, but we should be Lubbock High as a whole," Vogler said. "I want to increase the positiveness in the school. I want to create a good relationship between the administration and the students."
         &nbspAnother addition to the administration was Jill Nelson. Before coming to the school, nelso was the Junior high magnet specialist and vice-principal at Hutchinson Junior High for three years.
         &nbspnelson had many goals that she would like to see the school reach. "Basically, I just want to make sure that every class is challenging for every student and that we are teaching instructionally sound material," Nelson said.
