SCSC Congratulates Dr. Eric Hudspith, MASA Region 2 Administrator of Excellence

South Central Service Cooperative (SCSC) is proud to congratulate Dr. Eric Hudspith, Superintendent of Waseca Public Schools, on being named the 2026 MASA Region 2 Administrator of Excellence by the Minnesota Association of School Administrators (MASA). This prestigious recognition honors outstanding leadership, vision, and commitment to public education across Minnesota.

Each year, MASA selects nine regional honorees—one from each MASA region—to recognize administrators who demonstrate exemplary leadership, strong communication skills, a willingness to innovate, and an unwavering dedication to student success. As the Region 2 recipient, Dr. Hudspith represents the excellence found within South Central Minnesota’s educational leadership community.

Dr. Hudspith’s leadership in Waseca Public Schools reflects a deep commitment to academic growth, community partnership, and student-centered decision-making. Known for fostering collaboration and leading progressive change, he exemplifies the qualities recognized by the Administrator of Excellence Award.

MASA announced its full slate of 2025–26 award recipients this week, honoring educational leaders statewide who have made remarkable contributions to Minnesota’s public schools. Regional honorees will be formally recognized during the MASA Spring Conference on March 19–20, 2026, at the Minneapolis Marriott Northwest.

SCSC extends our congratulations not only to Dr. Hudspith, but to all 2026 MASA award recipients. Their leadership strengthens Minnesota’s educational landscape and reflects the dedication of school administrators working to ensure high-quality learning experiences for all students.

We are honored to recognize Dr. Hudspith and celebrate this well-deserved achievement.
