Dripping Springs ISD Superintendent Dr. Bruce Gearing has been named Superintendent of the Year, for Region 13, in the 2019 Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) Superintendent of the Year (SOTY) program.
The regional awardees will interview with a state selection committee on Aug. 23-24, and five state finalists then will be selected. The Texas Superintendent of the Year will be announced Sept. 21 at the 2019 Texas Association of School Administrators/TASB Convention in Dallas.
The SOTY program has recognized superintendents for excellence and achievement in educational leadership since 1984. Regional SOTY awardees are said to be chosen for their “strong leadership skills, dedication to improving educational quality, ability to build effective employee relations, student performance, and commitment to public involvement in education.”
