Christina School Board Election Candidate: John Marshall Young

Next in our series of posts on our school board candidates is John Marshall Young, a candidate for the Christina School Board. I want to first point out an introductory paragraph from his website (link below).

I have decided to answer the call from our President to strive for “what free men and women can achieve when imagination is joined to common purpose, and necessity to courage”. I endeavor to help make our state and nation a better place for our children simply because I believe we owe the next generation of citizens even greater opportunity than we have been afforded. I am indebted to our country to have been born into a free society that allows for the pursuit of excellence and it is this tradition I seek to protect and defend. I have chosen my first foray into public service in support of the noblest cause: EDUCATION.
