My sister Katie is the dean of administration at Excel Academy, a charter school in East Boston. The school is small, but it’s mighty.
State test scores show her 8th graders were second in the state in math. Her 7th graders were first in the state in English and second in the state in math. This is quite amazing, considering there are more than 250 schools in the Boston area included in this ranking.
Amazing!

That is terrific, Katie – both the promotion and the great job you are doing for your kids . . . . somehow this is all totally expected!
