1st School Day for Boca High and Their New Principal Wearing a shirt with the school’s Bobcat team logo, new Boca Raton Community High principal Joshua Davidow stood outside the office as new students approached him to ask where to go. “I can’t escape him,” a freshman he knew from Don Estridge High Tech Middle School said laughing. “It’s my first day, too,” Davidow said on Monday, opening day of the new semester for the Palm Beach County School District, and 2,732 students at Boca High. Davidow knew the figure instantly. Boca public school students have grown up with Davidow as he progressed from principal at Waters Edge Elementary, to Addison Mizner K-8 and Don Estridge. “This is my dream job,” he said.
