I am the PROUD father of 4 beautiful children and the husband to my best friend and beautiful wife Rhandi!! Our eldest 2 boys Levi (15 years-old, and Freshman at Cooper High School) and Cash (13 years-old and in the seventh grade at Cooper Jr. High) are involved in Rodeo, Basketball, Football, Baseball, Honors Classes, FFA, One Act Play... and the list continues to grow... Needless to say I have a Dawg in the fight in almost every extracurricular activity that CISD offers!! Kreece (5) will start kindergarten at Cooper ISD this fall and Alcie Joan “AKA Bae Bae”(3) will start school in the fall of 2025. Bae Bae was born with Osteogenesis Imperfecta (Brittle Bone Disease) and she will require special accommodations while attending school. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act is a topic that my wife and I have became very familiar with while preparing ourselves to feel comfortable with sending Bae Bae to Public School. Part of having a large family is that you are involved with so many different areas of the school system and enables you to be able to relate with a wide range of families and children! I attended Cooper ISD from Kindergarten through 12th Grade and will have children attending Cooper ISD until 2038!! Hopefully by the time our kids graduate we will have grandkids attending CISD!! My commitment to Cooper ISD will continue for decades and I am passionate about the short term decisions as well as the long term decisions that will effect future generations!!
