Shane Whiteley has been in education for thirty years. He has worked at Spearman ISD for seventeen years. He was the junior high principal before moving into his current position as the assistant superintendent. His previous experience includes classroom teacher, coach, k-12 principal at Follett, and elementary principal at Booker.
“I have been blessed to work alongside some of the most amazing and dedicated educators while I have been here at Spearman (this is pretty special to me), but I would definitely say a career highlight was when Spearman Junior High was named a Blue-Ribbon School during my last year as principal,” shared Whiteley.
It takes someone with a sense of humor to be the leader of a junior high campus. “I remember the time Mr. Whiteley did a backflip into the bean bags at the pep rally. This was the first of several surgeries for him! He also dressed up as Gru one year and had his minions. I will always be proud to be one of his minions,” reminisced Kimberly Anderson.
Kristi Ramon added, “Mr. Whiteley understands what it takes to move a team towards a championship. When I became the elementary principal, I quickly learned who to lean on for advice. We grew as friends and coworkers over the many years that we worked together.”
Whiteley will be taking a new position as superintendent at Adrian ISD. Thank you for your years of service to SISD. You will be greatly missed. We wish you the best in your new position, and we know Adrian is in good hands with you as their leader!
