Juan Roberto Ramirez is the Secretary on the United I.S.D. Board of Trustees. Even though Ramirez is the District 6 representative, he says his goal is to serve the District as a whole and give the students the best education programs possible. “Let’s not forget that we work united for what is best for our children,” Ramirez said.

 

Ramirez is a retired U.S. Customs Agent. He is a veteran of the Vietnam conflict, serving his country in the U.S. Army. After graduating from high school, Ramirez attended Laredo Community College and earned a degree in Business Administration. He is also a graduate of the Federal Law Enforcement Academy. Presently, Ramirez works full-time as a Career Advisor for the Laredo Job Corps, is a self-employed businessman, and a notary public. Ramirez served as Vice-Chairman for the Webb County Appraisal District Board of Directors from May of 2002 to July of 2004.

 

Ramirez is grateful for being elected and he feels honored by the confidence the voters have in him. He promises to work hard for his constituents. “I have an open-door to hear everyone’s concerns,” Ramirez said. “It’s an extraordinary experience to be able to work for the kids in the district, to be part of a team that makes decisions for kids and staff.” Ramirez says it’s a thrill to be part of the Board, “it’s a great honor to work for my District.”
