This past weekend the Coloradoan ran a front page story about the Poudre School District’s Superintendent Sandra Smyser and how she’s doing one year into her tenure. On behalf of the Chamber, I was interviewed for the story. You can find my answers here. The short version is that we think Dr. Smyser is a great addition to the community and that the school district is on the right path. A challenge for all superintendents, of course, is staying in touch with employers to remain sensitive to what graduates are facing in the workplace. In that regard, Dr. Smyser and the School Board seem to be inclined to seek input. Anyway, as a new school year starts, we have reason to be optimistic about the direction of the school district.
