West Ada Superintendent Dr. Derek Bub

Dr. Derek Bub is the superintendent of West Ada School District. WASD is the highest ranking large school district in the state of Idaho. It has a very unique school choice program, several STEM and art programs, an IB program, and more. Aside from the programs it offers, it also has a huge number of students at almost 40,000. It was wonderful to have a chance to speak with Dr. Bub how the district is managing the growth, the successes, and the areas of needed improvements.
