AIMS brought one of North America's top educators to the PEI Task Force on Student Achievement. You could hear a pin drop as Angus McBeath, superintendent of Edmonton Public Schools, shared with the task force members his experience and success making the Edmonton school system one of the best in the country. Mr. McBeath's comments prompted several newspaper articles, including this one that explains that the purse strings need to be taken out of the hands of the central office.
