Dr. Jharrett Bryantt is the superintendent of the Anchorage School District (ASD). He grew up in San Antonio and then went to college on the East Coast. He returned to Texas for his first teaching job at a charter school in Houston where he taught math as part of Teach for America which is a national program that supports college graduates to become teachers in our neediest schools through an alternative teacher certification process. Alaska does not qualify for Teach for America because we do not allow for alternative teacher certification. Two years later Jharrett left the classroom to begin his quick ascension up the administrative ladder of the Houston Independent School District. While working for HISD, he earned his doctoral degree in education policy and leadership from the University of Texas at Austin. In 2019, Dr. Bryantt was named one of Forbes’ magazines 30 under 30 for education based on his work to get more low income students into college. He began as ASD's superintendent in Summer 2022.
