Miscellaneous items of interest.
Schools
Goochland Superintendent of Schools Jeremy Raley Ed.D. was tapped
by Governor Youngkin to become the Chief of Staff to the Superintendent of
Public Instruction at the Virginia Department of Education on March 22.
During his nearly seven-year tenure in Goochland, Raley has
worked tirelessly to continually increase the achievement of our school division.
He never missed an opportunity to celebrate the role that “Team Goochland”—every
person who interacts with our students--played in the achievements of our
school division.
Raley will be missed. We wish him every possible success and
satisfaction in his new role.
Now it is up to the school board to find a worthy successor
to Raley to continue our schools’ pursuit of excellence while maximizing the
potential of every learner.
