FROMPAPAR: In March, the Pearland ISD board of trustees named the lone nalist for the superintendent position, Larry Berger, who comes from within the district. In mid-April, Berger was con rmed as superintendent. We sat down with him to learn more about his vision for the district so you can get to know him better as well (see Page 17).
