Riverside County – The Corona-Norco Unified School District is pleased to announce that Superintendent Michael Lin, Ed.D, was selected by the U.S. Department of Education as one of 100 top school leaders across American to represent their district at the White House. This first-ever National Connected Superintendents Summit was held on Wed., Nov. 19, in Washington, D.C.

Dr. Lin was among exemplary local school chiefs who were recognized for their leadership in helping transition their districts to digital learning. This unique opportunity was another example of how CNUSD continues to be a flagship district for many endeavors that assist in providing a high quality education for all students.

“I am proud to represent CNUSD, as well as Riverside County, as one of the 100 school superintendents in the nation to lead capacity building for education technology. I believe this important endeavor begins with a solid foundation of technology infrastructure built with student achievement in mind,” said Lin.

“The CNUSD Board of Trustees has established education technology as a priority in our Local Control Accountability Plan and the community has recently validated this by passing a local school improvement bond measure,” Lin added. “I am honored and humbled by this nomination and look forward to working with the nation’s superintendents in getting our school technology ready for the future. Our goal is to continuously provide a student-centered learning that transforms teaching and approaches to instruction as evidenced by our CNUSD district portal initiative.”

Akin to the classic 1939 Capra film, “Mr. Smith Goes To Washington,” portraying one man’s effect on American politics, Dr. Lin’s nomination as one of the 100 top school leaders across America attending this important summit shows his tremendous commitment to quality education and the effect it will have on the future of our CNUSD students.
