Superintendent's star turn

Sullivan West's superintendent of schools, Kenneth Hilton, makes a surprise debut on stage as Teen Angel this weekend in the high school's production of Grease. (Remember the Busby Berkeley-meets-Liberace dream sequence? "Beauty school dropout," he croons, "go back to high school!")

“They wanted me to be Teen Angel because I’m the only one around here old enough to remember the 50s,” quipped Dr. Hilton. “I’m the only one who knew what a malt shop was.”
