Mr. Bob Scott, Superintendent
The mission of the Avon Lake City Schools, a district committed to personalized educational excellence, is to challenge all students and develop their individual goals through community partnerships, resources, and technologies which will produce responsible and compassionate citizens. We believe that all children have the desire and capacity to learn, each in a unique, individualized and sometimes special manner. We also believe that learning is best in a safe, supportive and nurturing environment marked by expectations, challenge, mutual respect and trust, risk-taking, connection to the real world, and personal responsibility. As Superintendent of Avon Lake City Schools, Bob Scott enjoys working together with staff, students, parents and community members to further the district’s mission.
Bob began his tenure as Superintendent of Avon Lake City Schools in February, 2005. Prior to serving as our Superintendent, he was Superintendent for the Warren Local School District in Vincent, Ohio and for Belpre City Schools in Belpre, Ohio. He was previously a Principal in the Lake Travis Independent School District in Austin, Texas. Bob began his academic career as a Teacher in the Dripping Springs Independent School District in Dripping Springs, Texas, and the Decatur City School District in Decatur, Illinois.
Bob holds a B.S. in Education from Illinois State University, an M.S. in Educational Administration from Texas State University, and he earned his Superintendent’s License from the University of Texas at Austin.
