Kings County Superintendent of Schools

"I am honored to serve as the County Superintendent of Schools for Kings County. Each day, I’m inspired by the students, educators, and families who make our community a place of growth, resilience, and possibility. I have always believed that everyone who works in education shares a singular mission in education: supporting student learning. No matter one’s title or role, this shared purpose unites us all in working to improve outcomes for every student. I am deeply grateful to work alongside an incredible team who believe in the power of education to transform lives and open doors for every student’s future."
- Todd Barlow, Kings County Superintendent of Schools
Born and raised in Kings County, Todd is a proud graduate of Lemoore High School and a resident of Hanford. His career in education began in the classroom, where he spent eleven years as a middle school teacher before serving nine years as a school site and district administrator. These experiences taught him the power of collaboration, the importance of listening, and the lasting impact that strong relationships have on student success.
Since being elected County Superintendent in 2018, Todd has led the Kings County Office of Education with a commitment to fiscal and programmatic transparency. Under his leadership, the office has focused on building positive partnerships with local school districts, grounded in trust and focused on student learning and well-being.
