Logan's Roch named superintendent of year

Logan Municipal Schools superintendent Dennis Roch last week was named 2021 New Mexico Superintendent of the Year by his peers.

The award was presented during the annual conference of the New Mexico Coalition of Educational leaders.

“I humbly share this award with the outstanding students and staff at Logan Schools … for my success is THEIR success,” Roch wrote in an email to the Quay County Sun.

“Plus, I'm very grateful to my wife & kids, who sacrificed much so that I could help lead NM education leaders through the historic challenges we faced this year,” he added.

Roch has been superintendent at Logan since 2013.
