Brian Kingsley, Superintendent, Poudre School District

Brian Kingsley, who has 24 years of experience in public education, became Poudre School District’s superintendent in July 2021. Since then, he has worked with the PSD Board of Education and district staff to begin development of a district strategic plan, to guide PSD’s collective work from 2023-2025 – and beyond. The plan – and all work in PSD – is rooted in the district’s priorities of literacy, mental health and belonging, school safety, and graduation with options. Before his time in PSD, Kingsley served as the chief academic officer of Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools in North Carolina, the 18th-largest school system in the U.S. He has worked with others to close racial and economic opportunity and achievement gaps for students in his roles as a teacher, principal, assistant superintendent, and chief academic officer at some of the nation’s largest and most diverse school systems. An alumnus of the Chiefs for Change Future Chiefs program, Kingsley earned a bachelor’s degree from Penn State University in Elementary Education and a master’s degree in Educational Leadership from Florida Atlantic University. His recognitions include Florida’s 2014 Middle School Principal of the Year and Broward County’s Principal of the Year in 2013.
