Changing District Leadership

The Dallas County R-I School district is pleased to announce the hire of Dr. Laura O’Quinn as the Deputy Superintendent for the 2024-2025 school year. The purpose of the Deputy position is to enable them to work alongside Dr. Tim Ryan for at least one year prior to his upcoming retirement. For DCR1 this will be the best method to ensure the upward trajectory continues long into the future. Dr. Ryan stated, “Laura. O’Quinn has an amazing skill set and is certainly ready to step into the Superintendent role. We are confident in her ability to keep our Dallas County Schools moving in a positive direction for many years to come”.
