Prince George's Co. Schools Oust Superintendent Amid No Confidence Vote, Name Interim Leader

Millard House II is stepping down as superintendent of Prince George's County Public Schools effective June 18, 2025, following a mutual agreement after a closed school board meeting. His departure comes amid a vote of no confidence from the Prince George's County Educators' Association, citing leadership and staffing challenges within the district. Aisha Braveboy, the incoming County Executive, has named Shawn Joseph, Ed.D., as the interim superintendent. Joseph, who previously served as PGCPS deputy superintendent and currently co-directs the AASA/Howard University Urban Superintendents Academy, is expected to bring experienced leadership to improve student outcomes and employee relations. Braveboy emphasized this as a pivotal moment to reimagine educational possibilities for the community. The school board and Braveboy look forward to working with Joseph to strengthen the district's overall educational experience.
