In her letter, “Could Hsieh’s style work for schools?” Terri Robertson wrote: “During my 30 years with the Clark County School District, I had the opportunity to work with principals Fenton Tobler, Ron Fagan and David Harcourt. These men, in their administrative roles, valued their employees.”

Here is my list: Dr. David Price, Clarence Ehler, Margarita Garcia, Kristie Cole and Reggie Farmer. It doesn’t take much to just ask the teachers who have taught in the district for at least 10 years to help find a great superintendent. School Board members Linda Young and Erin Cranor seem to understand this. The rest of the School Board needs to listen to what they have to say. They understand that a school is as good as its administration.

There are many more administrators out there who know how to bring the community and the teachers together. I have seen wonderful, hard-working teachers and administrators who have helped children in the School District become good students and valued citizens. And, yes, they are right here.
