Jolene Witkin
Sergeant At ArmsI am Jolene Witkin, mother of 6th grader Isabella Gilyard. I wanted to be a part of the parent round table because I feel that ALL parent have the right to be heard and voice their opinions regarding their childβs education. I believe that successful education is a partnership with parent, teacher and student. We need to hold everyone accountable in order to make lasting changes to the school. Too many times there are only a few parents that dominate the conversations, when everyone deserves to be heard, and I feel that needs to change. When I am not a parent to an active 12 year old, I am the executive director of construction at my firm, where my main job is to make sure that occupied buildings remain safe and code compliant.
I came to emblaze because I wanted a different type of education for my child, one were they grow the WHOLE child, not just academic. I really think that was lost over the course of the last two years with the pandemic, but I believe with hard work and effort that we can once again make this school a place where growing the WHOLE child is once again a priority.
