After a national search and his final selection by Prince George’s County Executive Angela Alsobrooks, multiple sources confirm Millard House II will be revealed as the next superintendent of the Prince George’s County School system Wednesday as current CEO Monica Goldson retires later this month.
House left his job as Superintendent of the Houston Texas Independent School District last Friday. Houston’s Mayor tweeted that House improved the academic performance of the schools that needed attention.

“Out of the superintendents I have worked with in Houston he was by far the best,” said Jackie Anderson, President of the Houston Federation of Teachers.
