The scene in the background occured
about five thirty on a morning in mid July. The sun is coming up over a
stretch of Atlantic ocean off one of Florida's barrier islands.
Anastasia Island is located south of St.
Augustine, between
Daytona to the south and Jacksonville to the north.
Our place is on the southern tip of
Anastasia, within a half a mile of
Matansas Inlet. You can get near it by strolling down A-1-A south of
Crescent Beach with an eye out for a Ripley's Believe It or Not billboard.
If you are into tidewater tales and floating by on the intercoastal, keep
an eye out for buoy #74 and shoot a straight line toward the surf. For
those following the pelicans and the updrafts off the dunes your best
is to get directions from my flying
nephew through his webpage.
You won't find me under Wiles in the phone book but those who keep
Alert can narrow in the Anastasia search through
the yellow pages
under management consulting. You can find me
watching that sunrise from late May through mid August. Around the first
of July you can find me at the Pepsi
400 maybe cheering for Dick and Lake but certainly near the r.a.s.n
banner.
During the academic year you can find me in upstate New York being a
professor in the University at
Albany, teaching graduate classes
about educational
politics and management. For those
committed to educational
reform in New York
State and the nation, particularly Regents driven curriculum and secondary
programs, there are some interesting
high performance
results to think about in terms of state wide implementation efforts.
It is exciting to see the State of New York
make
performance information on all districts available on the
web.Hopefully, it will influence thinking about School Report Cards
and implementation of all Regents secondary programs by the
year 2003.
