I am very happy to be working as superintendent at Ben Bolt-Palito Blanco ISD. I have 22 years of experience as a teacher and administrator at all grade levels and hope to use my expertise to address the needs of the students in the district. I believe our students have the ability to succeed academically and socially to become well-rounded individuals and pursue their dreams via higher education. District personnel, too, have what it takes to ensure these students' successes. My intent is to work with staff to ensure the best possible education for all students and to achieve the rating of exemplary in the district. I welcome the community's help in achieving this goal. Please feel free to come and see me at central office this school year. I look forward to meeting you and discussing how we can work together to help students learn.
