Thanks for posting this, Jim. It was heartwarming to see a special on East – with 10 pm live interview with Principal Allan Harris – last night. It was particularly gratifying to see East presented in a positive light, with numbers showing a decline in police interventions this past year.
A lot of the credit goes to the change in leadership at East, along with the active and ongoing support of East staff, parents, and neighbors (the neighborhood association is playing a very active role).
There is no such thing as a perfect school, but the progress that has been made over the last 12 months is evidence that we can have a great influence in how our schools work by making good choices and then commiting time and energy to make sure that the good choices also are successful choices.
