With spirit comparable to the young, energetic cheerleaders, Toledo Public Schools Superintendent John Foley blew his whistle, twirled his baton, and marched with a large, black-feathered Busby hat to rally community support for his schools.
He was a cheerleader at the last levy kickoff and couldn’t do that again.
So being a drum major made sense, with the district’s cheerleaders on the field with him and the Waite High School band in the stands.
“It was really great to have all those kids here and to see their excitement and to be their leader as a drum major and as their superintendent,” Mr. Foley said.
