As our next installment of Meet the Superintendent Monday, we’re excited to introduce Ralph Squire. the Superintendent of South Sanpete School District. Superintendent Squire is originally from Manti, Utah, so being able to have him as Superintendent of South Sanpete School District, the school district he would have attended has been very exciting. Superintendent Squire is very passionate about education, and attended Southern Utah University (SUU) to receive his higher education.
Superintendent Squire's favorite book is Fish by Stephen C. Lundin and he lives by the wise words of Mother Teresa, "People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway. If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway. If you find happiness, people maybe jealous. Be happy anyway. The good you do today maybe forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway. For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.”
Thank you for your dedication and passion to education Superintendent Squire, South Sanpete School District is so lucky to have you leading the charge.

Utah's education system is ranked #2 in the nation by US News—a testament to the hard work of our educators, students, and communities. However, constant legislative changes threaten to undermine this success. It's time to #PushPause on the overwhelming number of new education bills each session. To maintain our top-tier status, we must ensure stability in our schools. Let's urge our legislators to focus on preserving what works and prioritize the future of Utah's students. #UtahPublicEducation #LegislativePause #USSA
