Williams: 1. All schools must be fully state accredited 2. Every child deserves a great education from Special Ed to our most academic achievers 3. Consistent communication.
PL: What concrete solutions do you propose to address these issues?
Williams: Every school must be fully accredited. It is my first and foremost priority to ensure all the schools in Manassas City are fully accredited. All of the Manassas City Public Schools are fully accredited except for Metz. There is a tremendous amount of work that needs to be done. We are too small of a district to have a school-of-choice program, but I envision grouping more of our same skilled set students together to obtain the greatest impact and excel our passing rates, not just to the minimum requirements, but to higher levels. I would like to see a working partnership with teachers. Teachers are who touch our children on a daily basis and have the most impact on our success as a district.
Every student deserves a great education. I truly believe our schools are unique serving a small community providing opportunities for each child to be the very best they can be. From special education to our highest academic achievers. Our community demands it; I demand it. Focusing on safety and student achievement both inside and outside of the classroom, using a comprehensive approach including: rigorous academic curriculum, high expectations and positive reinforcement for both students and teachers, efficient use of resources, school-community partnerships, staff development, leveraging of technology, and increased communication is how I will ensure each student receives a quality education.
Consistent communication. Efficient parent-teacher communication is vital. Our school system must make use of cutting edge digital communication methods, in addition to written and personal communications, to see that parents are aware and involved in their student’s academic journey.
Williams:From my prospective, it is the job or our School Board to always be cognitive of what changes are coming about by paying close attention to our community as a whole, what our society needs from our student body as they transition into being productive happy citizens, and to what the future trends are in our public education system from federal and state levels, so that we can predict correctly.
PL: What expertise will you bring to the office?
Williams: I founded Redstone Realty in January of 2013, and before Redstone Realty, co-founded Williams Realty in 2004. As president and principal broker, I have direct management and supervision of the brokerage firm and its practitioners.
