The article focuses on issues related to the search of a successor to the outgoing superintendent of the Boston, Massachusetts school district, Thomas W. Payzant. Last week, with the aim of informing the transition, two prominent education policy groups released a study of the district's accomplishments under Mr. Payzant. With the same intent, more papers on his track record are in the works for a conference planned for June 2006. And later this week, a coalition of more than a dozen Boston community groups is set to hold a meeting to gather public comments to pass on to the search committee. Parents there will be urged to brine their concerns about the district to the finalists for the job once they're announced next month.
