Superintendent

Proudly Serving AUSD

AUSD Community,

I am genuinely excited to embark on my first year as the Superintendent of Schools for the Azusa Unified School District. Having served across public education as a classified staff member, classroom teacher, school counselor, principal, and district administrator, I have a firsthand understanding of the collective dedication needed to ensure students thrive. I look forward to partnering with our Board of Education, staff, and families to deliver on the promise of excellence in education for all AUSD students. 

A strong relationship with families is the foundation of a thriving school system. I look forward to partnering with you to champion our students’ success. One of the things that drew me to AUSD is the strong sense of community connectedness. I am fully committed to being a visible, accessible, and active presence across our schools, engaging closely with our local partner organizations, and rooting myself deeply in our shared commitment to student success.

My own educational journey shapes my core belief that schools are places of possibility. As the child of immigrant parents, I entered the public education system as an English Language Learner, and I have a firsthand understanding of the transformative power of a supportive school community. My experience fuels my passion to ensure that each student has access to high-quality academic pathways, vocational training, athletics, and extracurricular activities that help them become the best version of themselves. 

Thank you for welcoming me into the Azusa Unified community. Together, we will build upon the District's established foundations and create an environment where every child is educated, empowered, and fully supported to achieve their highest potential.

With Gratitude, 

Guillermo López, Ed. D.
Superintendent of Schools
