Wilkinson seeks schools post in Dist. 4 Election 1999 Dale Wilkinson announced this week that she will run for the Goochland County School Board representing District 4. Wilkinson has lived in the Short Pump-Centerville area for most of her life, she said, and if elected plans to bridge the gap between citizens in Goochland without children in the school system, and those actively involved in our schools.
All homeowners benefit from a top-notch school system.
An informed community will be able to make the best decisions concerning the future we are building for all our children. Wilkinson was a school teacher for 12 years, including five at Goochland Elementary. Whether college bound or seeking employment in a technical field, students today need the basics first. In this effort, community volunteers, business partnerships, and parental support are vital. Wilkinson said her experience in the classroom would bring to the School Board a greater understanding of education from a teacher's perspective, as well as an understanding of trying to meet the expectations of parents, school administrators, and tax payers.
