Admittedly, I was little worried. After Monday’s Volume and Light post calling attention to Diane Ravitch’s “ill-advised” (taking a line from her hymnal) blog about Nashville’s director of schools, Dr. Shawn Joseph, the future began to look bleak for the illogically defamed director.

At first, I was relieved to see some others take the time to join me in expressing their outrage and/or support.

Then This Happened!

In a move befitting a true leader, newly elected school board chair Anna Shepherd requested the community’s continued support of the director.  According to the Tennessean’s Jason Gonzales, Chairwoman Shepherd laid down the law at Tuesday night’s board meeting.

I’ll be sleeping pretty soundly tonight.  Sweet dreams.
