Can you imagine being the deputy superintendent of the second largest district in New England–a renowned expert in the field–and a school committee member turns to you and whispers "you better not screw this up" right before she votes to make you superintendent?

Rereading what I wrote on literacy back in January because I'm going into a class at Holy Cross tomorrow to talk about it, and there's some good nuggets of Worcester-specific information in there I kind of already forgot about.
