Now that I have lived and researched the educational goals of two different states, I can easily say that this man did make a big difference in education in Louisiana. The accolades mentioned in the article have nothing to do with gifted but his impact on education was felt by everyone in the state: the teachers, the administration, the students and parents. I hope the next superintendent is able to carry on in the same direction.
