Superintendents and school districts are now worried that political fighting over vouchers might prevent them from getting additional help.

Superintendent Peter Hannigan's series of video interviews with students and other activities was "renewed" for a second season after a five-episode run last school year. "Being visible as a superintendent is one of my top priorities," says the Chicago-area district leader.

In the 2021-22 school year, more than 900 teachers left their jobs in El Paso's three largest districts. That was the highest number ever, and Texas also set a statewide attrition rate that year.

Joe Famularo, whose mottos include "Lead and Learn," wrote "Be Strong and Lead Together" for Bellmore Public Schools' class of 2020. He was recently named New York's 2024 superintendent of the year.
