Our District

Welcome to Mansfield Public Schools where we know students, support the whole child, and ensure deep learning. As Mansfield’s Superintendent of Schools, I look forward to meeting you and best supporting our students, families, staff, and community.  

Dear Mansfield Community,

I am honored to introduce myself as Superintendent of Mansfield Public Schools.   While I am not new to the district, I look forward to the opportunity to continue to deepen relationships with our students, families, staff, and the greater community.

With twenty-nine years in education, serving as a teacher, administrator, and Director of Teaching & Learning, I'm now honored to take on the role of Superintendent.   In each of those roles, I've always highly valued the collaboration with families, students, and staff.  My journey in education has been guided by a dedication to fostering academic excellence, promoting personal growth, and building strong community connections.  I have witnessed firsthand the transformative power of a supportive and engaging learning environment.

Throughout my career as an educator, I have been driven by my belief that all children deserve access to a high quality learning experience where they are seen as an individual, understood for their unique needs, and celebrated for the contributions they make each day.  Mansfield resonates with who I am as a leader – someone passionate about supporting the whole child, dedicated to understanding each student's unique needs, hopes, and dreams, and a strong advocate for high-quality learning experiences that empower them to envision their future selves.  Our children are  

“Learners Today and Our Leaders of Tomorrow.”

This is our time to learn and grow together.  I am appreciative of the community’s support, and look forward to the work ahead.  I invite the community to come and engage with us.  Be a part of our team, so that we can celebrate our successes together.

In Partnership,

Candace Morell, Superintendent of Schools
