Job description

Tigard-Tualatin School District seeks its next Assistant Superintendent
The Tigard-Tualatin School District seeks a visionary leader to help guide our diverse, highly regarded school district in the Portland metropolitan area. With 10,800 extraordinary students who call TTSD home, Tigard-Tualatin is one of Oregon’s ten largest school districts. Comprised of five distinct areas – Tigard, Tualatin, Durham, Metzger, and King City – our residents provide steady support, as evidenced by the recent passage of a $421M bond measure in May 2025. Our communities have won multiple awards for livability, and families settle here because of our schools’ strong reputation. TTSD is large enough to provide a comprehensive academic program but small enough to maintain close connections to staff, students, parents, and the public. This is a destination district, both for families and employees.

The Assistant Superintendent is a key member of Superintendent Iton Udosenata’s leadership team, reporting directly to the Superintendent. We seek a visionary, strategic, student-centered, equity-focused and empathetic leader. Our newest teammate will be a skillful leader with deep instructional knowledge who demonstrates integrity and respect for others, and who understands when to listen and when to provide direction. The role includes overseeing the academic core of the organization and serving as the superintendent’s top advisor.

If you are mission-driven, inspired to make a difference, and excited about serving the needs of students of all backgrounds, we welcome you to explore this opportunity. Experience working in communities with linguistic diversity, particularly Spanish-speaking communities, is of high value in this search. Salary range is from $197,000-$203,000 with the employee portion of PERS (Oregon’s public employee retirement plan) paid for by the district, and a TSA of approximately $9000/yr.

For top consideration, please apply no later than December 4.
