Philosophy Statement
With dedicated individuals leading our schools and system, our children can be successful in learning lifelong skills and preparing for college or the workforce. It is my desire to bring my civic and educational background to the Board room to promote education in St. Clair County Schools. Providing effective policy, adequate facilities, dedicated and highly qualified personnel and sound financial practices are priorities while representing my community of Ragland within the scope of all St. Clair County. Thank you for this tremendous opportunity.
