Toledo Public Schools CEO/Superintendent Romules Durant, EdD, was the recipient of the inaugural Leading Through Innovation Award by AASA-The School Superintendents Association.
The organization recognized Durant for his efforts on leveraging innovative technology and practices to improve outcomes, efficiency and sustainability at TPS.
The AASA board collectively chose to honor Durant for his visionary leadership, specifically pointing to the plans at the Scott Park campus, a commitment to workforce development and the creation of the Electric Vehicle Training Center.
Durant accepted the award during the AASA’s National Conference on Education held last week in New Orleans.
