Moreno has 22-years in education as a bilingual teacher, assistant principal, principal, and a senior executive director of curriculum.
According to Moreno, he has some big goals for the district.
"The biggest goal I have is the great opportunity for all of our children, and that comes with having an aligned curriculum but as well as having programs that they find interesting," Moreno said.
Moreno comes from La Vernia ISD where he also served as superintendent. Moreno resigned after the district came under fire for sexual assault allegations involving players of the football team.
