On May 20, I will ZOOM with Dr. Michael Hynes, the most interesting and inspiring superintendent I know.
Mike Hynes is superintendent of the Port Washington school district on Long Island, In New York.
He is a visionary. His new book—about educational leadership—is Staying Grounded.
He truly believes in whole-child education. He supports the parent opt-out movement. He believes that what matters most is children’s emotional, psychological, and social well-being. He is passionate about play, calm, mindfulness.
Mike is my choice for the next state superintendent of New York. What a wild thought! Imagine a major state led. Y a man who knows the harm done by standardized testing! Imagine a state willing to lead, instead of follow.
Join us on Wednesday May 20 at 7:40 pm EST to watch a discussion sponsored by the Network for Public Education. Space is limited to 100. Everyone else can watch a livestream on NPE’s Facebook page.

Hello Diane: the event has “reached its limit” of attendance. Are you or is he going to present at some point on C-SPAN’s BooktV?
My own interest is in watching for works that dovetail with and express also-well-grounded philosophical meaning and theory about it. CBK
