WIESBADEN, Germany -- Ms. Diana J. Ohman, Director of Department of Defense Dependents Schools-Europe, takes great pleasure in announcing the selection of Dr. Ronald G. McIntire as the Superintendent of the Isles District Office.

McIntire is presently the Superintendent of the DoDDS-E Bavaria District, where he has served since August 2001. He will assume his new position in August. The Isles District Superintendent oversees 17 Department of Defense Education Activity schools in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Belgium and Bahrain.

McIntire was raised in Colorado and calls Boerne, Texas, home. He holds undergraduate and graduate degrees from Western State College of Colorado, and a doctorate from the University of California at Los Angeles. He also completed post-doctoral study at Stanford University, where his work concentrated on the role of the arts in education.

McIntire began his career in education as a classroom teacher in Las Vegas, Nev., and progressed through the ranks of professional educators, occupying positions of increasingly greater responsibility and challenge. He was both professor and associate dean at the University of Houston, and has taught graduate level courses at Baylor University, the University of Colorado, and Portland State University.

McIntire’s administrative experience includes positions as Deputy Superintendent of the Houston Schools, Superintendent of Schools in Park City, Utah, and Superintendent of the Wichita Public Schools, Kansas. In addition, he has served as the DoDDS-Europe Brussels District Superintendent.

“We are very pleased that Ron has accepted the offer to oversee the DoDDS-E schools in the Isles District,” said Ohman. “His great insight as an educator and his broad experience as an administrator will be a great benefit to the children under our supervision in the coming school year and in the years ahead.”
