I moved here, met my wife of 33 years, and have raised my children in this community. My wife teaches math at Coral Shores High School. One of my daughters is a Coral Shores High School graduate, former Coral Shores teacher, and, currently, is a graduate student at the University of Florida. My youngest daughter is a sophomore at Coral Shores High School. I am a recently retired classroom math teacher. My classroom experience has allowed me to better understand teachers’ and students’ academic needs. I know that I can make a difference.<br /><br /><strong>Additional Comments:</strong><br /><ul><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Monroe County is too heavy in administrators.
