As superintendent, it is my honor to serve as a contestant in Mr. Central Florida 2022!
I am delighted to help raise funds for the Central Florida Speech and Hearing Center. It’s the least that I can do, since so many of our PCPS students rely upon the services of this amazing nonprofit organization. For more than 60 years, the center has provided life-changing treatment to individuals with speech, language and hearing disorders.
Just think about how much you depend on the ability to effectively communicate your thoughts and emotions with others. If you cannot communicate well, this profoundly impacts your quality of life, and can lead to frustration, isolation and depression.
For our students, it can also create immense challenges to learning essential subjects. That’s why we have dedicated staff members to help provide therapeutic services. We must do whatever we can to support our students’ needs so they can strive for success.
That’s why Central Florida Speech and Hearing Center is close to my heart. This nonprofit is always there to offer help to the children and adults in our community. Please consider voting for me or another contestant. Your donation will truly be going toward a worthwhile cause!
Thank you.
Fred Heid
Superintendent
