Burlingame High School Principal Chris Holleran announced his resignition Wednesday, effective at the end of the current academic year on June 30.

He said the reason for his decision was a desire to work closer to home. Holleran, Burlingame High’s principal for the last five years, lives in Santa Rosa.

“For the last 12 years,” he said in a news release. “I’ve worked in either Marin County or San Mateo County. It’s time to reduce that commute.”
