The Louisiana Board of Elementary and Secondary Education named Northwestern State University alumnus Dr. Cade Brumley state superintendent of education Wednesday. Brumley will replace John White, who resigned earlier this year.
“As a Louisiana native, I am extremely honored to be selected by a student-friendly BESE,” Brumley said. “Louisiana may not be the largest state in the union, but we have a big table for collaboration. I look forward to bringing people together to collectively move our state forward. We are primed for continued improvement, drawing on successes of the past and the promise for our future. I will fight for our children, families, and communities each day. They deserve our best.”
During his career Brumley has served students as a teacher, coach, assistant principal, principal, district leader and superintendent, most recently as superintendent of Jefferson Parish schools since he was unanimously appointed to that position in 2018, and as superintendent in DeSoto Parish schools from 2012-18.
