I think I have to correct 2 errors on the list. 1. Dr. Bill Green, who just left the School Board, is not a teacher in the MPS. He is a Professor at Augsburg College. 2. He was not asleep at any board meeting I attended, he just looks that way from the camera angle. I sat next to him for 1 year and a the far end of the desk for the next. Believe me, he was never sleeping. He added a level of thought and intellectuallism to discussions and policy discourse. I feel very lucky to have served with him as I have learned a great deal from him.
Dr. Green also has a very indepth knowledge of systems, political and social relations and educational programs. He was a very valued board member, although he is somewhat shy and humble. He never likes having attention called to him. In spite of that, he was chosen as a School Board Member of the Year by the Minesota School Boards Association, an association made up of over 300 school districts in the state, for his outstanding contributions and dedication to education and the city of Minneapolis. Dr. Green is one person to whom I feel I can always turn to for sound advice on educational policy matters.
