It has been my personal pleasure collaborating, white-boarding and working with Dr. Tim to realize our shared mission of providing equity and hope to the residents of the State of NJ through the power of inclusion and diversity. Dr. Tim tirelessly dedicates his time to mentor, encourage and challenge students throughout the State, developing and leading programs to unlock their greatest potential. Dr. Tim is truly an inspiration! " and "Dr. During my very first conversation with Dr. Tim Purnell I marveled at his passion for taking on big issues like poverty, equity, and community engagement and doing so with such vigor and infectious enthusiasm. I had to see it for myself. When I was able to visit and walk the halls of his schools, I got to see first-hand how he motivates his students, his teachers, his leadership staff, and everyone we encountered. I was able to witness him delivering leftover lunches to the food bank. I met students who were back on the graduation track after being provided with the technology and resources to complete competency-based coursework. I spoke with inspired educators from Somerville and surrounding communities as they gathered to share and learn best practices for increasing student achievement. I always admire a person who is willing to tackle the most difficult challenges head on. I envision them leading a charge of devoted team members into the fray shouting something like: “No problem is too big! We can do it! ” Dr. Tim Purnell is that type of leader. In addition, he recognizes that the greatest outcomes are often the result of a concerted, collective effort. “We… We can do it.” I think that is the essence of being “all in.” The education community is lucky to have someone like Dr. Purnell who is willing to give his all to make a positive difference in the lives of children. I wish him continued success in this endeavor and highly recommend him as a top educator, system and community leader, and overall change agent!"
