Former Flagler County School Board member Trevor Tucker has filed to run again for the District 4 seat.
Tucker filed with the Flagler County Supervisor of Elections Office on Wednesday, Feb. 11, joining the race for the west Flagler School Board seat with incumbent Christy Chong and challenger Ron Long.
Tucker served on the board for nearly 13 years. The Bunnell business owner was appointed to fill a vancancy in January, 2010, and won elections in November, 2010, 2014 and 2018. Tucker ran again in 2022, losing to Chong, who won with 55% of the vote.
Tucker has never been a big campaigner. He said that will change this year.
“There are so many new people in the county, so I will have to campaign if I want to win an election and be on the board,” he said.
He said if he wins he hopes to create more congeniality on the board, so it can work more as a unit.
“I’m running because I have a 4-year-old who will be starting school shortly, and right now it seems like the board is dysfunctional,” he said. “You have to come in with the mindset of working with everyone.”
Tucker said that when he was the board chair he held public one-on-one meetings with each board member.
“I’d ask what issues are you passionate about and what can we do to make sure you’re being heard as well as everyone else’s voice on the board,” Tucker said. “I don’t see many one-on-one conversations now. I don’t know if the current members even know they’re allowed to do that. It just needs to be publicly advertised and open to the public.”
Three seats will be open this year. Former board member Jill Woolbright and Cathy Moon are running in District 1. Incumbent Will Furry is currently running unopposed in District 2.
