VOTE FOR COREY SMITH ON NOV. 8
Fighting for Inclusion, Equity, Entrepreneurship, & Parental Support.
My family’s presence in Palm Beach County stretches back to at least the 1890s (pre-dating Palm Beach County’s foundation). I am a proud product of our terrific public school system. After attending North Shore High School, I was a member of Palm Beach Lakes High School’s inaugural graduating class. From there I attended and graduated from Morehouse College with a B.A. in Political Science. My first professional job was here, at home, working as an educator with at-risk middle school students. From there I attended and graduated from the University of Florida Levin College of Law before returning home and beginning my career.
This is more than just a race for an open school board seat. For me, this is an opportunity to serve and shape a system that has continuously helped shape me. With two decades of experience as a criminal, civil, and education attorney, I am uniquely qualified to keep our school district moving in the right direction from day one. I know how to argue for my position, and I use that skill to protect our students and community. I have a proven track record of fighting and winning big battles:
Still, work remains to be done and my fight is far from over. By electing me to serve as your District 7 school board member, you are electing someone who will champion your causes and shake up the status quo. We are in a fight for our right to public education, and it is a fight I intend to win.
Core Commitments
Our students should have the resources they need to exit our schools ready to thrive in any environment.
Prioritize resources on the foundational learning skills in preK-3 including the expansion of the Riviera Beach and East Delray preK Collaboratives.
Make the school system more responsive to the needs and requests of parents to develop a true school & family partnership
Listen to and support all employees: teachers, administrators, bus drivers, custodians, food service workers, and more. We do our best for students by doing right by our staff.
Work with mental health professionals, students, and families to connect and expand mental health services in schools.
Continue working with local business and industry leaders to build the school-to-workforce pipeline by forming and expanding partnerships to develop new technical and career programming, internships, pre-apprenticeship, and apprenticeship programs.
Student success is priority #1 and includes working together to provide students with relevant and engaging classroom experiences, a rigorous curriculum, and the support they need to “get it.”
