6th

The Virginia Education Association has endorsed Carole Pratt, candidate for the House of Delegates.

The organization, which represents hundreds of educators in the 6th district, cited Pratt’s candor and commitment to improving public education from pre-kindergarten through adulthood as the basis for its support.

A product of Virginia public schools and universities, Pratt will continue to be a tireless advocate for an education system that equips all of our children to compete.

This endorsement is especially important because the VEA endorsed the incumbent, Delegate Anne Crockett-Stark, in 2007.

Pratt serves as a Pulaski County Public Schools Education Foundation board member and is a past chair of the New River Community College Education Foundation.
