The Calhoun County ISD Board of Trustees announced Monday that Mr. Evan Cardwell was selected to become the district’s new Superintendent of Schools and will be leading the district’s seven schools, 3561 students, and 548 employees into the years ahead.
Cardwell joined the Calhoun County ISD family in March as Deputy Superintendent, after Larry Nichols requested a transfer into a part-time project manager role. Cardwell has been working closely with Nichols, school board members, and the district’s administrative team over the past months to ensure a smooth transition.
Before joining Calhoun County ISD, Cardwell previously served as Superintendent of Newcastle ISD and Principal-Athletic Director at Paint Creek ISD.
Cardwell says that he appreciates the Calhoun County community for being so welcoming and hospitable to his family. He says he has enjoyed getting to know CCISD staff, parents, and other community stakeholders, and looks forward to working as a team to provide the best possible education experience for students.
"We are very blessed and excited to be a part of the Calhoun County ISD family," he said.
Please join the district in congratulating Mr. Evan Cardwell on his new role.
