Jeremy Duncan, Superintendent of Fayette County School Corporation, is committed to making decisions that prioritize students' long-term well-being. Guided by emerging research on screen time, child development, and student engagement, he has led efforts to rethink the role of technology in Fayette County classrooms. Most recently, the district announced the elimination of one-to-one devices in primary grades and is developing age-appropriate screen time guidelines for older students. The goal is not to eliminate technology, but to ensure it is used intentionally and in ways that best support learning and healthy development. By asking difficult questions and making student-centered decisions, Mr. Duncan is helping create learning environments that prioritize authentic engagement, meaningful relationships, and what is ultimately best for children. That's leadership beyond the title! #LeadIAPSS

Dr. Matt Vance, Superintendent of Shelbyville Central Schools, believes some of the most impactful leadership moments happen alongside students rather than behind a desk. Each year, he joins Shelbyville students in the Special Olympics Plane Pull Challenge, an event that has become one of his favorite traditions. Working side by side to pull an 82-ton aircraft, Dr. Vance experiences firsthand the determination, teamwork, and perseverance that make the Shelbyville community so special. For Dr. Vance, participating in events like the Plane Pull is about more than showing support. It reflects a leadership philosophy centered on being present, building relationships, and celebrating students' abilities. That's leadership beyond the title! #LeadIAPSS @scs_goldenbears
