Carrier, a longtime educator and administrator, is running for office for the first time. Reason for running: I would like to restore respect and a renewed focus on student achievement to the Liberty County Board of Education. I have worked as a teacher and/or administrator at all levels of education. I believe this experience gives me a unique understanding of what can be done at elementary, middle, and high school to ensure our students get the type of education that will make them successful while in school and after graduating.
