Sarah McDermott, a local advocate and community volunteer, announced her run for the District 4 School Board Seat. McDermott said that she is excited for the opportunity.
"As a mother to two Arundel Middle School students and a product of public school myself, it is deeply important to me that we continue to make great strides toward increased opportunities for all students across Anne Arundel County. Whether it be a pathway to the mechanical trades, serving in the military, or heading to one of Maryland's unbeatable two or four-year academic institutions (go, Terps!), students in District 4 deserve to have options when they graduate," said McDermott.
McDermott was accompanied by her husband, a Marine veteran, to the board of elections to file her candidacy. The General Election for the seat will take place in the Fall.
