AASA Superintendent of the Year

Dr. Debbie Jones

Dr. Debbie Jones of the Bentonville School District was surprised at the September 17th school board meeting as her parents and several current and former superintendents were in attendance. The nature of this visit was to publicly announce Dr. Jones as the 2025 AASA Superintendent of the Year. As the state award recipient, Dr. Jones will now proceed to the National AASA Conference competition where she will be recognized with other state recipients in early March. Congratulations to Dr. Jones and the Bentonville School District!
