Letter: Covington supports disadvantaged children, understands teachers

By Potomac Local News

Prince William County Residents will be heading to the polls in November to choose their School Board Members for the next term. For anyone that truly cares about all children, the choice is clear: Betty D. Covington, School Board Member for the Potomac District.

I have had the privilege of working with Mrs. Covington as a teacher for sixteen years while she was the principal of Kilby Elementary and as an Associate Superintendent while she served on the School Board. I observed firsthand her dedication to and tireless efforts on behalf of the teachers, students, and parents of Prince William County.

How you can volunteer to help Manassas Park Trunk-or-Treat

By Sponsored Post

As an avid volunteer in the community myself, I can’t emphasize enough how important volunteering is. As a citizen you discover what a difference you can make in the community.

You’ll meet new people, create a positive impact in your community, and make important connections to help you in your personal and professional life. Businesses can also benefit from volunteering. Aside from meeting potential customers businesses grow their brand and reputation.

Prince William Board opposes VDOT taking Heflin Farm for commuter lot

By Uriah Kiser

Jeanie Heflin will sleep a bit better tonight knowing local officials don’t want to see the demise of her farm.
