The Gering Board of Education has taken action to recognize Dr. Kory Knight as Superintendent of Gering Public Schools, removing the interim designation from her title effective immediately.
The action followed a positive evaluation of Dr. Knight's first several months leading the district. At its November 9 meeting, the Board also approved a motion authorizing its Executive Committee to enter contract negotiations with Dr. Knight for a superintendent contract beginning July 1, 2027.
Dr. Knight began serving as Interim Superintendent on July 1, 2026. Following several months of leadership, the Board completed an evaluation of her performance, which reflected very positive feedback and recognition of her work across the district and broader Gering community.
Among the areas highlighted in the evaluation were Dr. Knight's commitment to community relations, her visibility and presence in GPS schools, and the relationships she has continued to build with staff, students, families, and community members.
The Board's action reflects its confidence in Dr. Knight and its commitment to moving forward with leadership focused on people, relationships, and the future of Gering Public Schools.
