The Key to Building Community as a Superintendent? Leading with Authenticity
Superintendents are often seen as administrators or decision-makers, yet the reality of their work is far more complex and deeply human. Throughout our conversations with superintendents, one theme remains clear: the importance of humanizing this critical role. In this series, we pose a vital question: How can we better understand superintendents as real people navigating complex challenges to provide the best possible education for K-12 students? To explore this, we had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Adam Clark, Superintendent of Mount Diablo Unified School District. His journey from an elementary school teacher to leading a district with 29,000 students and 3,800 employees sheds light on the immense responsibility and rewards of the superintendency.
