FAIRFIELD HIRES SUPERINTENDENT FOR 2024-2025
The Board of Education has approved the hiring of Richard Spencer as the Fairfield U.S.D. #310 Superintendent for the 2024-2025 school year. Richard Spencer has over 30 years experience in public education. He started his career as a PE/Health teacher and coach. Since that time he has served in several roles including building leadership at the Elementary, Middle, and High School levels. He also has 13 years in District level leadership. Some of his core guiding principles of education are that great teachers need to be in each classroom, great educational leaders should be leading in every building, and a strong support structure must be in place across the district to drive student success.
Richard has been married to Sara for 32 years and they have two children. Sara is a Director of Initiatives in the healthcare industry, works from home, and travels frequently. Zach farms and owns/operates an agricultural drone application business. He lives south of Lincoln, Nebraska. Mikenna resides in Wichita and serves as a Behavioral Specialist at Camber Children’s Hospital. In Rich’s free time, he enjoys hunting, fishing, golf, and spending time with his family.
He is excited to join the Falcon Family in July! The Fairfield District is also excited to have Mr. Spencer on board to lead us into the future.
