I take great pride in teaching and coaching at Ragland and St. Clair County. My father was the former football and basketball coach at Ragland High, and later Principal. He later served as Superintendent of the St. Clair County School System. My mother is a graduate of Ragland, and was a cheerleader. She was a third grade teacher for over twenty years. 

There has been a member of my family teaching or serving as an administrator in St. Clair County since the 1930's.
