Pons took over the district with the hope of continuing the continuous success that Montford had built. Pons oversaw the opening of two new schools and the closure of Belle Vue Middle School in the late 2000s. While school grades and scores did not stay as high as they previously were, the FL Dept. of Education began issuing overall school district grades in 2010. Under Pons' leadership, the district received three A's, three B's, and one C. During Pons' time, three schools were honored by being named National Blue Ribbon School. Pons also oversaw several construction projects to update school sites as many in the district dated back to the 60's and 80's. Post superintendency, Pons went on to be a resource for several educational resources in the community. In 2021, Pons was announced as principal in neighboring Jefferson County.
