Treasure Island, FL – Former County Commissioner and School Board member Nancy Bostock announced her campaign for the Pinellas County School Board and a key endorsement from outgoing School Board Member Stephanie Meyer. Nancy will focus on driving student success, ensuring that Pinellas County Schools empower parents and students to attain the best possible education.

"Pinellas County Schools have made solid gains in recent years, earning an A-rating for the first time, but we face several critical challenges. Runaway inflation has increased the cost of everything in our day-to-day lives, and our schools aren't immune. Housing affordability, demographic shifts, and rising costs negatively impact our schools, our teachers, our families and ultimately our children. We must continue to prioritize our students and their success in the face of these challenges.

As a parent, a grandparent and a small business owner, I know education is fundamental to success for our children. I'm proud to have the endorsement of Stephanie Meyer, and I will work to build on her leadership with a continued focus on maximizing student success. We must give our students the knowledge of the past and the skills of the future."

"Nancy's leadership, background in education, and experience in the private sector make her uniquely qualified to serve Pinellas County again on the School Board. We need to focus on student outcomes, provide transparency for parents, and prioritize our spending to ensure student success. Nancy Bostock is our best choice for the School Board – I'm proud to endorse her campaign."

Bostock served on the Pinellas County School Board from 1998 to 2008, when she successfully ran for the Pinellas County Commission, where she served until 2012.

Nancy Nelis Bostock is a lifelong Pinellas County resident. She attended Clearwater High School, earned a B.A. in History from the University of Florida, and earned an M.A. in Education from the University of South Florida. She serves as President/CEO of Chemical Standard Laboratory, which produces a line of specialty chemical standards. She is married to Craig Bostock, who served in the U.S. Navy for 28 years and works at Raytheon Technologies. They have three adult children and two grandchildren.
