All St. Louis Public Schools Stakeholders:
The volunteer blogger is republishing this past article from DESE to highlight the support that Dr. Adams has at the state level.
"Commissioner of Education D. Kent King today welcomed Kelvin Adams who has been selected as the new superintendent of the St. Louis Public Schools.
The appointment of Dr. Adams was announced last night by Rick Sullivan, chair of the Special Administrative Board that has governed the St. Louis school district since last summer, as a result of the district’s loss of accreditation.
Adams was employed by the St. Louis Public Schools during the 2006-07 school year but is currently working as chief of staff of the Recovery School District in News Orleans.
“We are eager to work with Dr. Adams, school personnel and other leaders in the St. Louis community to help the school district restore public confidence and boost academic performance. I know Dr. Adams recognizes the challenges he will face,” King said.
“It is critically important for the St. Louis Public Schools and the Special Administrative Board to create an effective leadership team that can focus on a concise agenda for improvement. The appointment of Dr. Adams is an important step in that process,” King said." Courtesy of DESE Home Page
