I’ve kicked Kent Fischer in the jimmy a few times for his DISD worldview, so I should point out how good I thought this profile of “shadow superintendent” Arnold Viramontes is. It looks at how much power and influence Viramontes, 60, wields, and how that rubs some the wrong way. Two points about that: one, I’ve talked to him on the phone, and Viramontes clearly doesn’t suffer fools well. And two, I’ve got no problem with that. Keep crackin’ skulls, AV.
