As the Sr. Director of Leadership/Chief of Staff, I supervise the Chiefs of Schools, sixty-eight schools, 40,000 students and impact decisions at all levels, Dr. Dukes has been a sounding board and partner as I lead the work. I continually seek opportunities for us to continue this partnership. When you have seven designated CSI schools and all but one school exits CSI status, I realize that we made the right decision in our selection."
