The Arizona School Administrators (ASA) organization has named Scottsdale Unified School District Superintendent Dr. Scott Menzel Arizona’s 2024-2025 Superintendent of the Year.
As such he is now a candidate for the ASA’s national organization, the AASA’s, contest for National Superintendent of the Year, according to a press release from the Scottsdale Unified School District.
The ASA is a nonprofit organization formed in 1971 and represents more than 1,500 school administrators across Arizona. The School Superintendents Association, known as AASA, is the organization of school system leaders that serves as the national voice for public education and school district leadership in Washington, D.C.
“Without a doubt, Dr. Menzel works tirelessly to the betterment of our school district and community,” Scottsdale Unified School District Governing Board President Dr. Libby Hart-Wells said in the release. “This award is yet another testament to his leadership and dedication to quality education for all. On behalf of the Governing Board, we sincerely congratulate Dr. Menzel on this well-earned and well-deserved honor.”
The ASA Executive Director Dr. Paul Tighe said the organization is proud to name Dr. Menzel superintendent of the year.
“Dr. Menzel is truly deserving of this recognition, as demonstrated by his nomination and selection by a peer review process,” Tighe said int he release. “We have many great leaders across the state, and we are very proud to have Dr. Menzel represent Arizona as the 2025 Superintendent of the Year.”
As a result of the ASA award, Menzel is now Arizona’s nominee for National Superintendent of the Year honors, which will be awarded by the AASA next spring. That annual award celebrates the talent and vision of those who lead the nation’s public schools.
“I’m deeply honored to be recognized as Superintendent of the Year,” Menzel said in the release. “I truly love what I do, and I do it #BecauseKids!”
“This recognition is a testament to what lies at the core of our district – our shared belief in our students’ tremendous potential,” he continued. “Together, we’re unlocking that potential so they can go out into the world and make a difference.”
