and Superintendents repeatedly tell us that LYSers are a different breed than
the typical educator. And many
districts now specifically seek out LYSers for critical positions. When I share this with audiences, I
typically am asked why this is the case. Here is an example. I recently had the privilege of
writing a reference for a longtime LYS district leader. Below is an excerpt:

Dr. X is

irritated many of our current state level politicians. But it also means that he trusted
resource for those in the elected class that truly support our schools.
