Why you should vote YES for an elected school board

  • Elected school board representatives are chosen by—and accountable to—voters like you. They better reflect the values of Hanover voters.

    Appointed school board members are chosen by a single politician.

  • 5 million+ Virginians already have the right to vote for their school board representatives. It’s time for Hanover residents to have the same rights.

  • School board elections bring transparency to a process that is currently happening behind closed doors in Hanover.

This question will be on the ballot this November:

“Shall the method of selecting the school board be changed from appointment by the governing body to direct election by the voters?”

Vote YES to bring accountability and transparency to the Hanover County School Board.
