I am blessed to have started my new position as superintendent in Cass School District 63 this week. It was difficult leaving so many wonderful people I have worked with in Peru for the last 15 years, and yet I am truly excited by this wonderful opportunity! @Cass63tweets

When you are confronted with difficult music, do you play the air violin? Or do you take it on? Are you taking time to go to the practice room? Work beyond the facade of perfect. Excellent keynote @KaiKight. #ILJAC19

I love the beautiful music of our children singing God Bless America to our veterans today. We love honoring our veterans @PeruNorthview and @PeruParkside , as well as teaching our children about the importance of their sacrifices on this special day!
A deserving nomination for such a dedicated and wonderful teacher @PeruNorthview! Congratulations, Mrs. Goodman!

I have never felt a more positive energy from our wonderful teachers and staff who are SO ready to welcome our kids back to @PeruNorthview and @PeruParkside Schools! These people truly demonstrate what it means to be child-centered every single day.
I am honored to serve for the past four years on the @IllinoisASA Board of Directors with a wonderful bunch of people. Also, I am not 6'11", even though it kind of looks like it in the picture.
