Assistant Principal (Mo-Ru)

Work Bio:
Prior to his career in education, Mr. Petty spent several years working in corporate, non-profit, and government settings where valuable business experience was gained. This unique perspective translated well into the field of education and has helped him have success over the last seventeen years. Mr. Petty began teaching in Round Rock ISD as a secondary science resource/inclusion teacher, followed by eight years as a science composite teacher and athletics coach at Llano High School. For the last five years he was presented with the opportunity to lead in various roles with Rio Vista ISD which eventually led to his earning a Master's degree in Educational Leadership. He has spent the last three years in administrative positions which include serving as the CTE Director and Middle School Assistant Principal, but was also afforded the opportunity to continue coaching during this time. 

As a resident of Cleburne, Mr. Petty and his wife (also working for CISD) love the community and look forward to being a part of the Cleburne family. Their service to the students and families of the district are of utmost importance and a source of gratification.
