she needs to start taking charge internally. seriously. forget Jen and
others. she needs to map out a plan. we need IB schools and STEM
schools to be executed flawlessly. they need leaders over them that
will kill themselves to make those schools work for ldds. those are
literally legacy projects for the mayor- and they seem like after
thoughts to the team. we also need a true HS plan. oliver is incapable
of producing that. she.and I should meet this week for sure.
