Clearwater Bar Meets New Superintendent

Clearwater Bar Meets New Superintendent

Perhaps the only thing that stirs the passion of a lawyer more than advocacy work is their children's education. That may account for why a full house of Clearwater lawyers listened so intently to the speech given by recently appointed Pinellas County schools Superintendent Clayton Wilcox at the Clearwater Bar Association's September luncheon.

The former superintendent of Louisiana's East Baton Rouge Parish school system urged the audience to look at the Pinellas school system as he does - someone from outside the system. Compared to what he has seen elsewhere, Wilcox says Pinellas parents and students have much to appreciate.
