   initiative and the creation of the Summer Institute for Secondary Migrant Students Program on college       
   campuses. He dedicated his professional and personal life to working with and for at-risk students having

   program for teachers who work with students-at-risk .

   Dr. Brian Dassler (1)
   On March 20, 2017 the education community lost one of its brightest stars with the passing of Deputy 
   Chancellor of Education Quality, Dr. Brian W. Dassler, 38. Brian grew up in Broward County where he graduated
   from Cooper City High School. Brian earned bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral degrees from the University of
   Florida, where he was twice named an outstanding young alumnus. Brian’s first job was as an English teacher at
   Stranahan High School in Broward County. In 2006, while teaching at Stranahan High School, he was named
   Teacher of the Year in Broward County, the nation’s sixth largest school system. He was the youngest teacher to
   receive the award.

   Brian was the founder and first principal of the KIPP Renaissance High School in New Orleans, Louisiana. He 
   also served as Chief Academic Officer of New Orleans Center for Creative Arts (NOCCA), the performing and
   visual arts high school for the State of Louisiana. At NOCCA, Brian’s leadership resulted in the school being
   named an “A” school and one of the highest performing open enrollment high schools in Louisiana. Brian’s
   essays on education and school reform, many of them written with his mentor David Colburn, have been
​   published by the Tampa Bay Times, The Gainesville Sun, The Miami Herald, The Orlando Sentinel, among others.
   Brian believed growth mindset to be the foundation of his vision—that teachers and students alike would know
   that with hard work and the right strategies, ability can be developed; that skill is cultivated through practice;
   that the possibilities for growth and improvement are abundant. As he said often, “Smart is not what you are;
​   it’s what you do.”

   Mrs. Scott was an excellent student, graduating at the top of her class. After graduation she continued her
   education at the University of West Florida and Florida State. Upon college graduation, she dedicated her life
   to education and taught in Hamilton County for over 30 years. From the classroom to the district office, she

​   was to love her.
