MONICA COLUCCI’S
REASON TO SERVE

A vote for me will be a vote for “Education, Not Indoctrination.”

As an elementary school teacher for over 26 years in Miami-Dade County Public Schools, I have seen firsthand the detrimental impact of liberal policies being implemented in local schools throughout the country. More importantly, as an educator and daughter of a Cuban immigrant, I am keenly aware that these dangerous ideologies run contrary to our country’s fundamental

Founding principles are crucial. When introduced to young minds, our democracy is at risk and freedom is threatened. Therefore, I proudly advocate for parental rights and the education of our children without indoctrination.

I believe the best way to prepare students for the future is to provide them with a strong academic foundation to become independent thinkers and productive citizens. It is essential that our educational system provides ample opportunities for all students. I am a strong proponent of Career and Technical Education as an alternative pathway for students that should in no way be viewed as a less desirable route. As a mother and woman of faith, I understand the need to protect our children’s minds as well as their spiritual wellbeing.

I have accepted the challenges presented before me as your School Board Member in Florida’s largest school district. All of my decisions and actions have been to provide effective and positive solutions for the betterment of education in Miami-Dade County.

As your elected representative, I pledge to work tirelessly to ensure the best education for students while being an advocate parents can trust to protect their rights. I also am committed to doing the right thing without fear of political ramifications.

Thanks for your time and God bless you and your family,

Signature
