Dr. George Willey was named the Assistant Superintendent of Cameron ISD in April of 2009.  He has nineteen years of educational experience serving in elementary, middle school, high school, and alternative education settings in districts ranging from 2A to 5A in classification.  He has served as an administrator in three “Recognized” or “Exemplary” districts prior to moving to Cameron ISD in 2009.  Dr. Willey has eight years of experience as a high school administrator to include five years as a 5A high school principal.  He has also served as an instructor in the Region XII Principal Certification Program and as an adjunct professor for Northwestern State University in Louisiana.

In his current role, he provides leadership to the district’s curriculum, instruction, and assessment systems to ensure an increased level of student academic achievement.  Dr. Willey also provides oversight in these areas to ensure compliance with local, state, and federal regulations and policies.  It is his personal goal to see every child in Cameron ISD meet or exceed the level of academic achievement established by state and national standards.  He believes that the primary ingredient to prolonged academic success of students is providing them with a strong initial foundation through researched-based early childhood educational opportunities that focus on literacy, mathematics, science, and social skill development.
