New Jersey also has a state school board, whose VP for county activities could be of use.
Ohio

Ohio has the following 5 regions and leaders (colors correspond to map):

Red Central Kim Miller-Smith

Blue Northeast Reno Contipelli
Orange Northwest Judy Jackson May
Yellow Southwest Ronald J. Diver
Green Southeast Paul D. Mock

Ohio also has a department of education whose Superintendent of Public Instruction, Paolo
DeMaria, could be of use.
Delaware

Within these three overarching regions, Delaware has minimal scholastic leadership. When
broken into sixteen counties, equally insignificant leadership exists. Therefore, Delaware’s
Department of Education leadership would be the most effective contact.

Virginia

Eight primary regions in Virginia with minimal leadership structure. The better contact would be
someone from the Virginia Department of Education’s Office of Science, Technology,
Engineering, and Math.
Maryland

Maryland has the following 9 regions and leaders (colors correspond to map):
David Cox, Steven Lockard, Theresa
Purple Allegany, Carroll, Frederick, Garrett, and Washington
Alban, Barbara Baker, Boyd Michael
Green Baltimore County Verletta White
Yellow Baltimore City Sonja Santlelises

Patricia Saelens, Diana Mitchell, Karen

Caroline, Dorchester, Kent, Queen Anne's, Somerset,
Orange Couch, Andrea Kane, John Gaddis, Kelly

Griffith, Donna Hanlin, Louis Taylor
West Virginia

Split into over fifty districts with no other regional segregation and leadership. West Virginia’s
Department of Education’s Teaching and Learning Assistant Superintendent, Jan Barth, could be
a useful contact. Further, District and School Advancement Senior Administrator Kathy Hypes
could also be of use.

Massachusetts

Massachusetts has adequate structure with 14 defined counties, but it has no sub-leadership
beyond the department of education. The best contact appears to be the Massachusetts
Department of Education’s Center for Instructional Support.
North Carolina

North Carolina has the following 8 districts with contacts (number corresponds to map):
1 Northeast Jill Camnitz
2 Southeast Reginald Kenan
3 North Central Amy White
4 Sandhills Olivia Holmes Oxendine
5 Piedmont-Triad Alan Duncan
6 Southwest James Ford
7 Northwest Todd Chasteen
8 Western Wayne McDevitt

Also, North Carolina’s Department of Public Instruction has a “Career and Technical Education”
subsection whose director Trey Michael could be a useful contact.
Connecticut

Connecticut has the following 8 counties with contacts on the State Board of Education:
Litchfield William Davenport
Hartford Allen Taylor
Tolland Joseph Vrabely
Windham No Contact
Fairfield Robert Trefry
New Haven Erik Clemons, Makayla Dawkins
Middlesex Erin Benham
New London Malia Sieve

The contact information for each board member is not given, but reaching out to the general
board and requesting each individual could allow emails or phone numbers to be attained.
