I would like to express my appreciation to the men and women of the CCSD Custodial and Plant Services on National Custodial Worker’s Recognition Day. As the son of a retired Head Engineer, I know first hand how difficult your job is daily. Thank you for your hard work.

No matter how good of a judge you may think you are, every leader will make a bad hire at some point. When you do, fix it fast and move on. I’ve replaced several ‘bad hire principals’ mid-year; rather than allow them to destroy a school’s culture by staying until year’s end.

Enjoyed my visit at Alps Road Elementary School today! Students and teachers working hard to grow and become proficient!
