Tracy Blake (Facebook) – “No matter what’s happening around us, the mission stays the same: make sure every student has the support, opportunities, and encouragement to thrive — in school and in life,” Blake wrote on Facebook.
This is Blake’s first public statement since the Prince William County School Board voted to censure him on October 18, 2025.
The debate over student free speech and political club access in Prince William County has now spiraled far beyond its original scope. What began as a discussion about whether students could form a conservative Turning Point USA club at Patriot High School has exploded into a controversy involving personal accusations, party politics, and public trust.
Brentsville District School Board member Erica Tredinnick says she was threatened and intimidated by Tracy Blake, the Neabsco District’s representative and current School Board Vice Chair, following the October 1 meeting. In a detailed post on Facebook, Tredinnick alleged that Blake shouted profanities, invaded her personal space, and made a remark involving her husband before security escorted her to her car. Potomac Local News has independently confirmed several key details of the confrontation.
