Superintendent
Austin Independent School District

Superintendent of the Austin Independent School District, serving more than 74,000 students and 10,000 employees.

Segura was officially appointed permanent superintendent by a unanimous board vote Jan. 25, 2024.

He first joined the district in 2018 as the Operations Officer and led the implementation of the $1.05 billion 2017 Bond.

He went on to lead the Long-range Planning process as chief of operations, which was the largest-scale application of the Equity by Design process in district history. The process served as the foundation of the record-breaking $2.4 billion 2022 Bond as well as the non-operational strategies included in the Long-range Plan.

As superintendent, Segura is focused on the generational impact of Austin ISD in Central Texas. Strong community partnerships and support of Austin ISD are at the core of this work and reinforce his belief that Strong Schools make a Stronger Austin.
