Table of Contents

Candidates for the Varina District seat on the Henrico School Board will meet Saturday, Aug. 24 at a forum at Varina Library, 1875 New Market Road, from 10:30 a.m. to noon.

Three-term School Board member John Montgomery is giving up his seat, and four candidates – Alicia Atkins, Joyce Davis, Michelle Henderson and Kandise Lucas – are vying to replace him. Davis sought the seat unsuccessfully 12 years ago; none of the other candidates has sought elected office previously.

The event will feature a 30-minute meet-and-greet, followed by a question-and-answer period during which candidates will address citizen questions. A moderator will select the questions submitted by the attendees prior to and during the event.

Questions may be submitted by e-mail to voicesforvarinaschool@aol.com.

Tickets and proof of residency in the Varina District are required for entry for both adults and children. Tickets are free and available at https://tinyurl.com/y2tsqeu4.
