Posted Date: 11/01/2023

The Colorado Association of School Executives (CASE) is thrilled to name Dr. Greg Rabenhorst, Superintendent of Weld County School District Re-3J, as the Colorado Superintendent of the Year for 2024. With more than ten years in his role as Superintendent with Weld Re-3J, Dr. Rabenhorst has intentionally developed and led a district community focused on student achievement, transparency, and a sense of inclusion for all. His background as an administrator in special education, human resources, and finance helps inform his strategic vision and provides a deep understanding of how to best address the needs and priorities of the district, in a way that keeps students at the center of the work. 

Dr. Rabenhorst was selected through a competitive process by a committee of previous award winners and current superintendents from both rural and urban school districts across the state. He will be recognized this spring at the annual CASE Awards Reception, as well as at the 2024 AASA National Conference on Education in February where he will represent Colorado in the 2024 AASA National Superintendent of the Year contest. When told he was the 2024 recipient of this award, Dr. Rabenhorst expressed, “I am honored to have been selected for this recognition and believe it is a direct reflection of the great work our teachers and staff are doing for students every day. I am so proud to lead and work alongside our supportive board, dedicated staff, and engaged community members.”
