Former Teacher, now board member, ‘gets it’

“I never gave up on him even when he doubted himself”

becki-couch-duval-school-boardThe Honorable Becki Couch and I were first elected the same year (2010) and began our school board training together. Over the years Ms. Couch and I would often chat at Florida School Board Association trainings and conferences. In FSBA we regularly have been on the same side of issues and I have much respect for Ms. Couch and her county is blessed to have her as one of their School Board representatives.

Chronicle says “NO WAY” to bills that would create ‘high school athletic free agency’

Chronicle says “NO WAY” to bills that would create ‘high school athletic free agency’32823-8

Please read the Citrus Chronicle editorial, “School-transfer bills have no place in Florida“, regarding two legislative bills that would create ‘high school athletic free agency’ and that are rapidly moving towards becoming law if we don’t voice our displeasure to our state legislators.

The Chronicle shared, “… the Legislature is pushing the college model for the recruitment of athletes down to the high school level.”  I appreciated that the Chronicle went on to say, “…It is appalling that bills like this ever find their way out of committees and onto the floor of the Legislature.”
