Do you know someone who would make an outstanding school board representative?


In DeKalb County, we pay about two thirds of our property taxes to the DeKalb County School Board. As a parent with several children in the DeKalb County School System, I have observed many passionate parents who fight for quality education in our schools, many of whom would make outstanding members of the school board. I am so impressed with several of these dedicated parents that I wish one of them would step forward and serve the community at large.

If you know someone who might be interested, please let them know that the opportunity is almost at hand.

Cassandra Anderson-Littlejohn of District Eight is the Board of Education member up for reelection that serves the Dunwoody area. Her district includes half of DeKalb County covering approximately the northwest to the southeast portion of the County. See Map.

Registration to run as a candidate starts Monday April 28th and ends Friday May 2nd, the qualifying fee $540.

If a candidate from the Chamblee/Dunwoody area were to step forward, I'm sure they would get the support of the community behind them.
