Marvin Lewis accepted the position of Superintendent for Cincinnati Public Schools Thursday. He becomes the latest to accept the enormous challenge of declining enrollment and school board in-fighting in the school system. At the press conference, Lewis stated: "Moral victories aren't good enough anymore. We're going to work at it and work at it, and we're going to keep getting better and better. We cannot accept mediocrity."
