Welcoming Ashleigh Gibson, the New CEO of the Edmond Public Schools Foundation

The Edmond Public Schools Foundation is thrilled to welcome Ashleigh Gibson as its new Chief Executive Officer beginning June 2. Ashleigh will kick off her leadership with a month of transition work, collaborating closely with the outgoing CEO to ensure continuity and a strong start.

“Ashleigh brings the heart, commitment, and excellence needed to further the foundation’s mission and vision of supporting Edmond Public Schools and its staff. We have no doubt she will carry forth the legacy of greatness currently upheld by the foundation and will continue to help EPSF serve our schools and community.”
— Ryan Siler, Board President

One of the things Ashleigh is most looking forward to is meeting all of the incredible teachers and staff across Edmond Public Schools when the new school year begins. Building relationships with the educators who inspire and shape Edmond’s students is a top priority as she begins her leadership.

Starting in June, Ashleigh will also begin connecting with the community supporters who make the Foundation’s impact possible. She’s excited to hit the ground running and carry forward the Foundation’s legacy of excellence.

“Stepping into the role of CEO for the Edmond Public Schools Foundation is both humbling and exciting. I’m deeply honored to work alongside the Foundation’s Board of Directors and staff as we partner with Edmond Public Schools to achieve excellence in education and expand opportunities for our students. I truly believe that when schools and communities come together to invest in our students, there’s no limit to what we can accomplish. Let’s do this, Edmond!”
