| District Goals & Priorities
Gary’s knowledge of the legislative process and his advocacy in Tallahassee and have been incredibly valuable to the citizens of Washington County. From his roundtable education meetings with Gov. Bush, Lt. Gov. Education Commissioner Brogran, Commissioner Crist and Commissioner Gallagher, Clark has continually advocated for equity and enhancements of rural school systems.
