🚨 Hot off the press! 🚨

The Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) has named five state finalists for Superintendent of the Year — and our very own Superintendent Kurt Ashmore is among them! 👏👏

These finalists were selected from 17 interviewed regional nominees across Texas and evaluated on their work in improving student outcomes, building strong leadership teams, fiscal responsibility, advocacy, and their commitment to innovation in education.

Superintendent Ashmore will advance to the next stage of the award process at txEDCON in Houston this September, where the state winner will be announced on Friday, Sept. 12. Click on the link below to read the full press release.

We are proud to see his leadership and dedication recognized at the state level. Congratulations, Mr. Ashmore! 🚀
