Over the past few months, parents of students at Seattle Public Schools have come to expect an email newsletter on Sunday nights from the new superintendent, Ben Shuldiner. “I've always believed that the job of the superintendent, and really the job of any leader, is to be as communicative as possible and be transparent,” Shuldiner said. Shuldiner said his fondness for those email updates goes back to his days in Brooklyn as the founding principal of the High School for Public Service.
