Daily News | Philly has a new superintendent: It’s Tony Watlington
what they said was a shallow pool of candidates amid a flurry of superintendent searches nationally, Watlington was regarded as the clear favorite after the public met him in a series of meetings and a town hall. He won points for a straightforward style and clear explanations of who he is and what he values as an educator.
But Watlington has a great deal to prove as someone who has only served in a superintendent role for a year, and in a small district. He comes from a right-to-work state to a district that must contend with five separate unions, including the powerful Philadelphia Federation of Teachers. He will lead a district unable to raise a penny of its own revenue and is therefore susceptible to whatever the prevailing political winds are in City Hall and Harrisburg.
