    I believe that Escambia County is in “good shape” with the folks we have in office and the newly elected officials. I think we’ll move forward and become an even better place to live. To newly elected School Board Superintendent, Malcom Thomas, I was talking to a transplanted person from Ohio, she said the only thing she had a problem with in this county were the schools.
