I’ve been a Taylor fan since 2006, so this is tough: I don’t think this is a good album. It feels like she internalized “more words = art” post-folklore. A 31-track album that boldly asks: what if there are two good songs on the front half?

We are proud to announce that our superintendent, Dr. Joe Gothard, was selected by the American Association of School Administrators (AASA) as the 2024 National Superintendent of the Year! Congratulations to the best superintendent in the country! 🎉

Yusef Salaam, one of the members of the ‘Central Park 5,’ who later became known as the ‘Exonerated 5,’ has officially won the City Council District 9 seat in New York, NY. @dr_yusefsalaam ran unopposed in the Harlem district after winning the Democratic primary election earlier this year in a landslide. In 1989, a then-15-year-old Salaam and 4 other Black and Latine teenagers were wrongfully convicted of raping and beating a white jogger in Central Park. Salaam served almost 7 years in prison before DNA evidence exonerated him and the others. ‘For me, this means that we can really become our ancestors’ wildest dreams,’ Salaam, a Democrat, told the Associated Press prior to the election. He campaigned on combating the gentrification of Harlem, increasing affordable housing, prioritizing economic development, enriching schools and social services, bolstering public safety measures, and fighting for environmental justice. He says his life story and new political career serve as a symbol of the injustice that Black people in America are fighting against. ‘I am really the ambassador for everyone’s pain,’ he said. ‘In many ways, I went through that for our people so I can now lead them.’

Congratulations to Dr. Joe Gothard, who has been named the 2024 Minnesota Superintendent of the Year by Minnesota Association of School Administrators. Read more about the award here: mnasa.org/gothard-superinten… @MNAssocSchAdm
