—Photos by Christine Temple and Jessica Rosa. Photo Essay: My Day with John Jungmann. During John Jungman’s 11-hour workday on June 25, I spent eight hours with the Springfield Public Schools’ superintendent. That’s a big ask of any executive, but I got a sense he enjoyed being able to talk about the work of the state’s largest school district. He was a good sport, too, answering detailed questions like: What did you have for lunch? (A Taco Bell burrito and Diet Pepsi.) How many cups of coffee do you have in the morning? (One. He started drinking coffee when he took the job with SPS.) Do you exercise? (Yes, but not on board meeting days. He’s training for a half marathon in Chicago.) How old are you? (42.) Over the course of the day, shadowing Jungmann brought me to Lake Springfield, the Watershed Committee of the Ozarks Inc. and two SPS administration buildings. I watched him interact with students, lead at least four meetings, and attend a retirement party and a three-hour board meeting. Read the full story.
