He led the district through the pandemic, expanded career and technical education, rolled out laptops for every student, and built a new career center—all while earning state superintendent of the year honors in 2019. With a 30-year education career that included teaching, IT, and leadership across diverse districts, Cotton championed pathways to success, spotlighting community colleges and earning a doctorate from George Washington. He’s staying on briefly to ensure a smooth transition, and will soon join the University of Virginia to shape a statewide education consortium.
