Welcome Message from the Superintendent for the 2025-2026 School year.

Welcome to our school district, and thank you for taking the time to learn more about our schools and our community.

It is both an honor and a privilege to serve as Superintendent. I am excited to work alongside our dedicated educators, staff, families, and community members as we continue to provide exceptional educational opportunities for every student we serve.

My career in education has been shaped by meaningful experiences at both the classroom and administrative levels. I spent six years teaching in Omaha, Nebraska, where I developed a strong appreciation for the impact high-quality instruction and supportive relationships have on student success. I later served as Principal at Ainsworth Community Schools for four years, an experience that strengthened my commitment to collaborative leadership, school culture, and continuous improvement. These roles have provided me with a well-rounded perspective on the needs of students, staff, and communities.

Our district is built on a strong foundation of academic excellence, student-centered decision-making, and a commitment to growth. We believe every student deserves a safe, supportive, and engaging learning environment—one that challenges them academically while supporting their social and emotional development and preparing them for success beyond graduation.

As Superintendent, I value collaboration, transparency, and shared responsibility. The success of our schools depends on strong partnerships among students, families, staff, and our community. Together, we will continue to foster a culture that values respect, innovation, accountability, and high expectations for all.

On a personal note, I am grateful for the support of my wife, Ashlie, and our four sons. My role as a husband and father deeply influences my work in education and reinforces the importance of creating schools where every child is known, supported, and encouraged to reach their full potential.

I am proud of the work being done across our district and excited about the opportunities ahead. Thank you for your trust and partnership as we work together to ensure our schools remain places where students thrive and futures are built.

With appreciation and optimism,

Ben Wright
Superintendent
