Sean Reno has been appointed Alamo Heights ISD Athletic Director.
He currently serves as Principal of Woodridge Elementary. Reno joined AHISD in 2020 and served as an assistant principal at Alamo Heights High School for four years. In addition to teaching and administrative positions, he served as a high school tennis coach for 16 years in both North East and Judson ISDs. After his collegiate playing career at Texas Lutheran University, Reno spent one year as an assistant tennis coach with the program.
“Today marks an exciting new chapter for AHISD,” says Dr. Dana Bashara, AHISD Superintendent. “Sean brings a big picture leadership approach to athletic administration that will benefit every student, from our youngest learners to our varsity seniors. His commitment to the 'student' in student-athlete ensures our programs will continue to excel both on the field and in the classroom.”
Reno earned his bachelor’s degree from Texas Lutheran University and his master’s degree in Educational Leadership from UTSA.
“I am incredibly excited to step into the role of AHISD Athletic Director at a time when our overall athletics program is in such a great position,” says Reno. “I have seen the work that our athletes and coaches have put in over the last several years, and our responsibility is to now take our success and continue to build on that foundation, maximizing every programs’ potential each season, and ensuring that our athletes are better students and people for having participated in our AHISD athletic program.”
Reno and his wife Kelley, a professor at UTSA, have been married for 23 years and their three daughters Haley, Emily, and Kenley all attend AHISD schools and are involved in athletic programs.
“We will continue to build a championship culture for every one of our AHISD programs, and ensure that our teams at Alamo Heights High School and Alamo Heights Junior School are a source of pride for our district and our entire community.”
Reno will assume his new role this summer and will be involved in the selection of the new Head Football Coach at AHHS.
The district will also begin a search for a new Principal at Woodridge Elementary.
