Hightower Prefiles For Escambia School Board

July 30, 2011

Incumbent Escambia County School Board member Patty Hightower prefiled Friday for re-election in 2012.

“Escambia County Schools have shown tremendous improvement in the past few years. While the credit goes to our great teachers, I hope I have contributed as a school board member to higher standards and higher goals during my time on the board,” Hightower said. “Experience counts in education – not only in the classroom but also on the school board.”

She said that she and the current school board work well together as a team with the superintendent.

“I believe during my next term I can continue to contribute my time and effort toward the goal of insuring our schools provide the best possible learning opportunities for our children,” Hightower said.

Hightower will appear on the August 28, 2012, ballot. She is the only candidate so far to prefile for the seat that she has held for term terms.

    Mrs. Hightower is an advocate of students and has treated charter schools fairly.
