The MASA Regional Superintendent of the Year Award should be presented to an individual in your region who has shown tremendous effort and dedication to enriching the lives of children and the community as a whole. This individual will be recognized for strong leadership, creativity in successfully meeting the needs of students, communication skills, professionalism, community involvement and the success of students that has taken place during tenure in their district.

MASA will support your participation in the program by providing the award and promoting your recipient through a press release. Please place your award order well in advance of your scheduled presentation, but it is recommend that this be done at your December Region meeting.

All regional award winners are automatically considered for the State Superintendent of the Year, announced in December. The State Superintendent of the Year then becomes eligible for the AASA National Superintendent of the Year. View AASA's tips on enhancing your application.
