How often do you see a school superintendent take the wheel of an Indianapolis 500 race car? Meri Skilliter, the leader of the Ada Schools, was in Indianapolis to learn about building strategic partnerships from the leadership at the Indianapolis Speedway. And, for a while at least, she got to sit behind the wheel of an antique racer. The 500 is what Naptown is known for—“The greatest spectacle in racing.” We expect her home by Thursday night...that’s board meeting night.
