Beginning his career in Lubbock Cooper ISD for a year before moving to Plano ISD, Dr. Gasaway
spent thirteen years serving as an athletic trainer, teacher, coach, assistant principal, associate
principal, principal and Director of HR. In 2010, Dr. Gasaway then moved to Midway ISD where he
ultimately served as principal of Midway High School. During his time at Midway, Dr. Gasaway also
worked as an adjunct professor at Baylor University teaching a leadership class for freshmen
students.
In 2016, Dr. Gasaway began his tenure at Marble Falls ISD and his impact has been widespread
across the district. He attributes his track record of success to surrounding himself with good
leaders and support staff who help accomplish the ultimate goal as a team.
Dr. Gasaway frequently credits the District’s exceptional Board of Trustees and the partnership they
share in leading Marble Falls ISD forward.
Board President, Kevin Naumann, shared, “Dr. Gasaway is the natural fit for the role of Superintendent
for Marble Falls ISD. He is humble and kind, and he has a heart for every child’s success. He has
been loyal to the District and has a proven track record of smart, thoughtful, and strategic decision
making; all while loving every child, staff, and community member in a way that inspires them to be
their very best. He listens and cares deeply. He is honest and genuine. He has a deep knowledge of
the educational institution, but, more importantly, he is driven by a set of core values and faith that
he is working toward something greater than himself or any one of us.”
Dr. Gasaway said, “I feel blessed to have been with Marble Falls ISD and part of the Marble Falls
community since 2016. I am honored to have the faith and confidence of the Board, staff, and
community to lead the Marble Falls District to new heights. For the last 8 years, we have been
dedicated to love and inspire the students and staff of MFISD. I promise to continue the growth we
have seen and will continue to build Marble Falls into a District of Destination.”
