Davie County Schools has named Wendi Maglio as the new principal for Central Davie Academy, upon the retirement of Beth Edwards.

Most recently an assistant principal at Davie County High School, Maglio has been in education for 27 years, with a strong background in exceptional children. She has taught at the elementary, middle and high school levels and held leadership roles at the high school level.

“She is a student advocate, with a deep understanding of student learning and strong desire for their success. She has served as a trusted resource to families, through her care of students and parents,” said superintendent, Jeff Wallace.

Maglio earned a bachelor’s degree from Appalachian State University and a masters in executive leadership from Gardner-Webb University. She has two children, lives in Winston-Salem, and will assume her new role this summer.
