Dear Neighbor, 

     My name is Stephen Gorham, and I am running for Hillsborough County School Board District 7,county-wide. As a veteran who deployed to the Middle East two weeks after 9/11, and as a volunteer firefighter, I take public service very seriously.  I am a product of the public school and state University systems.  My wife is a sixth grade teacher and our oldest daughter will soon enter kindergarten.  I am fully invested in making sure that not only my children --- but all children in Hillsborough County get the absolute best education possible.  

     With the challenges that our school system faces, I believe we need leaders dedicated to meeting the increasing demands of our district, our teachers and especially our children.  We need leaders who will challenge the status quo and not be a rubber stamp for the administration.  That is why I am running for the Hillsborough County School Board District 7, county-wide and humbly ask for your support and your vote this August 26th.

Thank you very much. 

Sincerely

Stephen Gorham
