How about Tacoma.   He was hers for several years and went off to New York.  Everyone staff was to take advocacy training..... I like him and agree with his take ...Tacoma was not ready for him ( the teachers adminstration that is )

AS the dogs and I came in this morning form out walk, “Tony Brown’s Journal” was 
laying on the TV.  The fellow speaking immediately caught my attention—I sat 
own to listen.  I only heard the final ten minutes or so, but I wish I’d heard 
he whole program.  The man was Rudy Crew, super of the Miami-Dade County 
chools.  Is he “for real”?  He was saying things I’ve thought for several years 
ow, since returning to Little Rock.  I looked on the internet, and “Tony 
rown’s Journal” plays at different times around the country on PBS stations.  I 
ope you can catch it later today—you’ll find yourself having a conversation 
ith the TV screen.  Has anyone read Dr. Crew’s new book?  Here’s the TV listing 
or the “Tony Brown’s Journal” week of Oct. 7:
Dr. Rudy Crew, superintendent of Miami-Dade County Public Schools, discusses 
ublic education in America, the subject of his book, "Only Connect: The Way to 
ave Our Schools."”



ome of you on the list who have worked in NYC or Miami under this man’s 
uperintendency, what’s your take?.  After ten minutes, I want to apply for a 
ob in Miami!
