Scott Stults, who has been superintendent of schools at Sheridan County School District#2 for the past five years, is resigning his role to embrace a new chapter in his life.
He said in an email to SCSD#2 employees. “I am writing today with a heart full of gratitude and a wave of mixed emotions to share a significant change in my professional journey.”
“This was an unbelievably difficult decision, rooted only in my deep, unwavering passion to impact more students and educators across Wyoming.”
“My career has been fundamentally driven by the belief that every student deserves an exceptional education, and that belief was nurtured and strengthened right here in SCSD2.”
Stults succeeded Craig Dougherty, who announced his retirement in 2020. Stults’ administrative experience began in Casper, where he served as Natrona County High School assistant principal for two years before joining the SCSD2 team in 1998, and being named Superintendent at SCSD#2 in 2021. Last May, he was named 2026 Wyoming Superintendent of the Year.

Stults added that he currently works closely with the other districts in the county as well as working with the Johnson County School District. He said this reinforced to him how critical those relationships are, and it’s about all of our kids. He said he had found great camaraderie and collaboration between the Sheridan Districts and Johnson County superintendents. He added that this position will only expand that net wider to include the entire state.
“The work we do – day in and day out – to inspire, challenge, and support our students is truly foundational. I have been continually amazed and humbled by your dedication, expertise, and unwavering commitment to the young people of our community. Seeing the innovative projects and high impact learning in our classrooms, the collaborative spirit in our hallways, creating and fostering meaningful relationships, and the resilience you all demonstrated through challenging times has been the greatest privilege of my tenure.”
He said he continued to be truly honored to work alongside the staff of SCSD2. “You have taught me so much, and I cannot express enough gratitude for my time in SCSD2.”
