Bullard ISD Names Lone Finalist for Superintendent’s Post

BULLARD � The Bullard school board has announced that Todd Schneider, the assistant school superintendent in Katy, is their choice as lone finalist for superintendent of schools. According to the district�s web site, the board has followed a lengthy process in determining the finalist. In August, the Board hired Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) Executive Search Services to direct the search. TASB consultants met with staff and community groups September 9 to discuss desired characteristics of the new superintendent. The profile developed from these meetings was the standard used by the Board and consultants in evaluating the applicants for the position. The board selected six applicants for initial interviews. Three applicants were invited back for a second interview. The Board is scheduled to vote to offer a contract to Schneider January 5, 2015.

Schneider, a graduate of the University of Northern Colorado, is currently serving as the Assistant Superintendent for Katy ISD. He received his Master’s Degree in Education Administration as well as his Superintendent Certification from Texas A&M Commerce. He has been employed in numerous roles during his 27 years in education including teaching and coaching for Spring Branch ISD, Crandall ISD, and Kemp ISD. He served as Assistant Principal for Crandall ISD before taking a position as Principal at Martin’s Mill. He also served as Superintendent in Martin’s Mill ISD for 7 years before making the move to Katy ISD.

Schneider commented that he is �honored to have been selected by the Bullard ISD School Board as their next Superintendent. My family is very excited about becoming part of such a community driven, high achieving school district. I look forward to the opportunity to work with and serve the students, staff and community as their school leader striving to achieve Excellence in Everything.�
