An Open Letter to Dr. Francis Scruci*

I want to congratulate you on your impending retirement in July. You will join many of us that had a second and even third act in our retirement; for people like us, retirement is not as fun as it looks. (Until about two years in, when you realize that huge backpack of bricks you carried 24/7 is now unloaded and gone.) I still have a blog, shoot out videos, and try to encourage as many people as I possibly can before departing this planet. I, for one, will be very sorry to see you go. I only pray the board can find a superintendent as capable as you.

Here is why I am sorry you are leaving:

  1. You have been a committed member of our community.
  2. You have held comments back that you could have let roll.
  3. I always had confidence in you to do what you thought best for our children and grandchildren.
  4. I admired the way you continued pushing for new school facilities, even though these were some taxing times: Pun intended. We almost made it!
  5. I appreciated the way you honored the Veterans. It meant a lot to me and to so many others.
  6. The quality of the administration, faculty, and staff is a testimony to your leadership.

For these reasons and more, thank you, Dr. Scruci. I wish you the best in the next act. Go Browns!

May the Lord bless you!

Jim

Dr. James D. Allen

*This is an open letter to the Bowling Green Superintendent, who is retiring. You may not know him or even our city, but you can think of someone to encourage today! Why not do it.
