There’s big news about the St. Louis Public Schools on the Post-Dispatch website:
As of mid-morning, the start of the new school year began without any glitches, said district spokeswoman Deborah Sistrunk.
Administrators from district headquarters were on hand at many of the schools to assist the principals on opening day, Sistrunk said.
I’m surprised — not that the first day went smoothly, but that the administrators left district headquarters to get a taste of real life in the schools. The district employed 196 administrators in 2006.
