Throughout my tenure as an educator, I have been driven by my belief that all children deserve a quality education. Children of our city are no different. As the new Superintendent, together we will ensure excellence for all students, both current and new students to come. Cincinnati resonates with who I am as a leader, one who is passionate about student achievement, excited about quality programming and committed to equity for all students. Cincinnati represents the culmination of great experiences that I will share with a community that is now home.

This is our time to learn, grow and develop together. I am humbled by the Board's belief in my ability to lead our District to the next level, to make Cincinnati Public Schools the top choice for children and families of our city. I am appreciative of the community's support, and look forward to the work ahead.

The goal of the 100-day plan is to provide a roadmap for the transition process. The work of increasing the success of all students is too great of an ask for our school district to attempt in isolation. While doable, the goal of an improved educational experience will require involvement from all — students, staff, families, caregivers, business leaders and community partners.

The initial transition process can be thought about in four major phases: engage, explore, evaluate and equip. Each phase will build upon the previous phase. A culminating plan with deliverables and updates will be monitored and shared with the Cincinnati Public Schools community. Through these engagement opportunities we will capture the voices of all while considering the feedback provided in the strategic planning process.

Come, engage with us. Be a part of our team, so that you may celebrate with us in our inevitable success.

Yours in service,

Iranetta Rayborn Wright
Superintendent
