This is good to hear.  

This is one time I hope Tony Bennett didn't leave his heart in San
Francisco. Laughing.

Bennett: New Blind Services Director a Priority "It's near the top of my
priority list."
Those words are from Florida's new Education Commissioner Tony Bennett about
hiring a new BlinGood morning to all for your information.May you all have a
wonderful day.Services director.
In his first week on the job, Bennett says he met with interim Blind
Services Director Aleisa McKinlay.
McKinlay is also the Vocational Rehabilitation Services Director.
Both divisions are part of the Department of Education.
Bennett says he's had a short discussion with McKinlay.
"We're very excited about the work we believe she can do," said Bennett.
"But again, we are sensitive to the fact we want to make sure we have all
the components in place to make sure all the divisions of the department run
smoothly," he said.
McKinlay was named interim director last month.
She took over for Joyce Hildreth.
Hildreth resigned in the wake of a services contract scandal.
One other DOE employee resigned and two others were fired.
