Educator
From guiding kindergartners through their first words to mentoring high schoolers navigating life's most critical transitions, Megan Price has dedicated her career to meeting students exactly where they are.
A Golden Apple Finalist and High-Impact Teacher, Megan has taught across every stage of learning, kindergarten, fourth grade, fifth grade, and high school, before stepping into a role with an even wider reach. Today, as the Public Education and Information Officer for Lehigh Acres Fire Control and Rescue District, she brings the same passion for teaching to an entire community, delivering life-saving fire and safety education to everyone from two-year-olds in daycare to seniors in elder care facilities. Currently pursuing her Master's in Educational Leadership, Megan isn't just shaping the next generation. She's protecting it.
Miss St. Augustine 2026
Wearing the Miss St. Augustine 2026 crown is not something Megan takes lightly. It is a platform, a responsibility, and a call to serve. As the 2025 Miss Florida Quality of Life Winner and a decade dedicated to the Miss America Organization, Megan brings more than a title to the stage. She brings a career built on community, a heart rooted in her hometown of LaBelle, Florida, and a genuine belief that pageantry at its best is public service dressed up. From Capitol Hill advocacy to fire station classrooms, Megan uses every room she walks into, crown or no crown, to make her corner of Florida a little safer, a little stronger, and a little more connected.
Literacy Advocate
Megan Price believes that a child who cannot read is a child whose world has been made smaller than it needs to be, and she has spent her career doing something about it. As a Certified Everglades Literacy Program Teacher, member of the Florida Literacy Coalition, and founder of Literacy Without Limits, Inc., her mission is simple and urgent: break barriers, build readers. Megan has worked with some of the most underserved learners in Southwest Florida, bringing a trauma-informed, whole-child approach to literacy instruction that doesn't just teach kids to decode words, it teaches them to believe in themselves. Her goal? A nationally recognized children's literacy brand that puts a book in every hand and confidence in every voice.
