Richardson ISD has something to celebrate: Superintendent Branum has been named Superintendent of the Year by the Texas PTA, one of the most respected recognitions in Texas public education.

The Texas PTA Superintendent of the Year award is presented to a district leader who has demonstrated an outstanding commitment to students, families, and community partnerships — the very values that parent-teacher organizations hold dear. Being singled out for this honor by the Texas PTA, which represents hundreds of thousands of parents and educators across the state, is a meaningful testament to the collaborative spirit Superintendent Branum has fostered within Richardson ISD.

Richardson ISD serves tens of thousands of students across one of the most diverse and academically accomplished school districts in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. The district has long been recognized for its strong academic programs, dedicated teachers, and engaged parent community — and this latest recognition reflects the leadership that helps make all of that possible.

The Texas PTA’s recognition highlights the importance of the relationship between school administrators and the families they serve. When a superintendent earns the trust and admiration of parents and community advocates at the statewide level, it speaks volumes about the culture of openness and partnership being cultivated in Richardson’s schools.

Congratulations to Superintendent Branum and the entire Richardson ISD community on this well-deserved honor. It is a proud moment for students, parents, teachers, and everyone who calls Richardson home.
