Education & Thriving Schools

 

 

For 29 years, Mike has been an educator at St. Xavier High School - teaching Government, Economics, Modern World History, World Cultures, U.S. History, and American Civil War. Mike knows that in order to create safe, clean, and prosperous communities, we must start with promoting academic excellence.

​

In his role as an advisor to the Principal and President of St. Xavier High School, Mike pushed for a major overhaul of school safety and security following the Columbine School Massacre. Wanting to make student safety a top priority, Mike served as one of St. X.’s main liaisons with local police and fire departments.

​

Mike currently serves as a board member of three public charter schools that serve our most disadvantaged youth in the local area. As a strong advocate for charter schools and school choice, Mike will always prioritize parental oversight in public education and ensure that our children are being taught the values that reflect our community.
