“Manuel J. Rivera has taken risks throughout his career with the public schools he has led and the jobs he has taken.

At age 39, he became the first Hispanic superintendent of the Rochester City School District in western New York.

Now 53, he is in his second stint leading the Rochester school system and has won praise for easing relations among factions on the highly politicized school board. Rivera would not comment yesterday, other than to say he spoke with Boston school officials about the job opening at their urging; he did not apply, he said.”
