Dear Friends,
I am running for the District 6
seat on the Duval County School
Board because I believe strongly
in higher education, I care about
the children in this district, and
I believe they have a right to a
first-rate education. The
Duval County School System is
facing many challenges today, and
I look forward to the opportunity
to be a part of the solutions.
The Duval County
School Board is in desperate need of new
people and fresh ideas. My
background is in corporate
leadership, operations, and
resource management. I am not a teacher
or
school administrator,
nor do I have any professional affiliation
with the school system. This lack
of a direct tie to the system is a great
strength for me. I am an average citizen,
like you, who cares for the children and the
quality of education in Duval County.
My leadership qualifications for
serving you include many years of
leadership experience in the
airline, banking, and consulting
industries, and I have served in
the military for many years as
well. I am currently
employed by Florida State
College at Jacksonville as a
program manager in the
aerospace field. A product of the
Duval County School System, I am a
graduate of the University of
North Florida, and a current MBA
candidate, with a leadership
concentration, at Liberty
University.
The Duval County
School Board needs diversity in
experience and fresh ideas
from the private sector. I have the leadership
experience, the education, the drive, and the
dedication to make a difference in improving
education in Duval County. A vote for me is a
step in the right direction!
Thank you for
taking the time to visit my site. I humbly
look forward to the opportunity to serve you
as a school board member in District 6.
Sincerely,

Tom Baine
