Barton Signs with Illinois College

My name is Jake Moss and I am a candidate for the Ralls County R-II Board of Education. My wife Amber and I live in rural New London with our two children Brayden and Ella. I grew up west of Perry and attended Perry Elementary. I graduated from Mark Twain High School in 1995, and I furthered my education at Northwest Missouri State University in Maryville where I obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Education.
Upon graduating college, I worked in public education for 14 years. From 2001-2006, I served the students of Mark Twain Jr/Sr High School as a physical education and history teacher. While at Mark Twain, I also coached football, basketball, golf and track. During this time, I also earned my Master’s Degree in Secondary Administration from William Woods.
I accepted the job as middle school and high school principal at Community R-VI School District from 2006-2009. In 2009, I came back home after being hired as the high school principal at Mark Twain. It was during this time that I continued my education and obtained my Specialists Degree in secondary administration from William Woods. I served Mark Twain as high school principal until 2015 before deciding to leave the field of education.
I currently work as an Independent Sales Representative for Pioneer Seed and work on the family row crop and cattle farm. I believe that my experience as a teacher and administrator in the public school system has provided me with a strong background of how the public school system works. I feel this would be an asset to serving on the board. I remain committed to the students, staff and patrons of our school district and would appreciate your vote and the opportunity to serve.
