On Friday, July 30, 2021, the Gwinnett County Board of Education unanimously approved Dr. Calvin J. Watts as the next superintendent of Gwinnett County Public Schools. Dr. Watts—a former GCPS school leader and assistant superintendent who most recently served as Superintendent of Kent School District in Washington—was the sole finalist for the Gwinnett position. In the coming days and weeks, Dr. Watts will launch a “Look, Listen, and Learn Tour” that will focus on visiting schools and reconnecting with the Gwinnett community.
