Superintendent of Schools

Dear Longhorns, 

I am thrilled to start my second year here in CHISD. Since day one, my focus has been clear: Every student, Every time, All the time. This is the value that I hope to instill in every Longhorn, including staff, parents, and our community. 

We have to see our students in order to serve our students. No two students are exactly alike, so we can't expect them to learn as if they are. That is just one reason that we offer our Pathways to Potential choice programs, so that every student can follow their passions, talents, and learning styles to achieve their ultimate goals. 

I have spent the last 25 years serving in school districts as a teacher, principal, and district-level administrator and I tell people all of the time that CHISD has the strongest mission statement that I have ever seen. I didn't write it, but I am honored to work toward this mission every day.

CHISD's mission is to develop resilient scholars who excel academically and are empowered to serve.

Cedar Hill has a strong tradition of excellence and a spirit that you can feel. Whether you are on a campus, at a Friday night game, watching a fine arts performance, or attending a community event, the heart of the Longhorn nation beats strong and loud.

As we start the 2026-27 school year, I look forward to meeting more incredible members of our community. If you see me out and about, please stop and say hello! It takes an entire community working together to keep our school district strong, and Cedar Hill the best community around!
