Superintendent Jensen’s favorite book is My Losing Season by Pat Conroy. A quote that Superintendent loves is, "To increase abiding satisfaction for the mass of our people, and for all people, someone must sacrifice something of his own happiness. This is a duty only to those who recognize it as a duty. The larger the number ready to sacrifice, the smaller the total sacrifice necessary... . The truth, today, be good, be decent, be honorable and self-sacrificing and you will not always be happy. You will often be desperately unhappy... . But with the death of your happiness may easily come increased happiness and satisfaction and fulfillment for other people--strangers, unborn babies, uncreated worlds. If this is not sufficient incentive, never try... " --W.E.B Du Bois
