THE RACE FOR COAST COMMUNITY COLLEGE SCHOOL DISTRICT
Angelique Flores
Armando R. Ruiz is a member of the Coast Community College District’s
Board of Trustees, a district he said is doing a “great job” teaching the
basics for transfer and vocational education.
“Now we must do more,” he added. “We must teach the basics for the
21st century, the basics that prepare Coast students for new jobs in high
technology and electronic communications.”
Ruiz earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the University of
Texas at El Paso.
His goals for the next four years are to ensure tax dollars and
partnership funding continue to enhance classroom education and support
outstanding teachers. He also hopes to work with the state, as well as
business and community leaders, on programs that respond to local
education needs.
“Coast’s success is no accident. It’s a team effort involving
dedicated teachers, committed students and decisive board leadership,” he
said.
