Superintendents,
On behalf of the Region 4 Board of Directors, I congratulate you on starting another successful year. In addition, I would like to extend a warm and heartfelt welcome to Dr. Matthew Neighbors, Galveston ISD, Mike Miles, Houston ISD, and Dr. Demetrius McCall, Sheldon ISD, the newest superintendents in our distinguished community of Region 4 school superintendents. Your appointments across our region reflect your dedication to public education and demonstrate your board and community's confidence in your steadfast leadership.
We recognize that the role of the superintendent of schools comes with many political challenges—but it also comes with many rewards, especially when you can spot evidence of your leadership in the voices of your staff, on the faces of your scholars, and in other small, but significant moments each day. Your experience, expertise, and passion for education will undoubtedly continue to contribute to your respective districts' overall success and growth.
At Region 4, we are committed to being your district advancement champion. We have your back, ensuring timely, reliable, and responsive services to you and your districts. Our Region 4 community is known for its collaborative spirit and dedication to continuous improvement. Your insights and perspectives will be invaluable as we collaborate to enhance the education experience for all students across our region.
In the coming weeks and months, we look forward to meeting with you to discuss your specific aspirations for your district and to collaborate on initiatives that will benefit your community and schools. We aim to develop new relationships and advance already-established relationships that assist you to provide excellent, equitable outcomes for all students. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions, need assistance, or wish to discuss specific initiatives or ideas. We are here to support you in your role as superintendent and are excited about the positive impact you will undoubtedly have on your education community.
Once again, congratulations on the start of a great year, and we wish you many blessings and continued success.
