How will Dallas and Fort Worth find their next schools superintendents?
Fort Worth Superintendent Kent Scribner announced Thursday he plans to retire, making him the latest North Texas education leader to step down during a tumultuous time for schools.DISD last launched a widespread search for a district leader about a decade ago, when Hinojosa left his post for the first time. That search resulted in the hiring of Mike Miles, who came to Dallas from a smaller school system in Colorado.
Mackey expressed similar sentiments saying the board needs “to see the scope of what is out there” and compare with the existing leaders already working within Dallas. “When you have an inside person … it makes a lot of folks from the outside not want to apply for very good reason,” Flores said. “And when you have somebody as good as Susana Cordova, [the] bottom line is I’m not interested in doing a crazy search.”Meanwhile, Dallas faces competition from other districts also grappling with vacancies in their chief roles.
The outgoing superintendent wrote on Twitter that the district “deserves a thoughtful superintendent transition process - so infrequent in large urban districts.” The plethora of leadership changes come at a time when political pressure on Texas school superintendents is at an all time high over COVID-19 health mandates and how educators should address challenging topics like racism.
