Wow – what a year for the foundation! Our 12th superintendent,<br />
Dr. Jamelle Wilson, completed her first year; the <strong>Hanover</strong><br />
Education Foundation welcomed three new scholarship<br />
donations; and the HEF presented the first Stewart D. Roberson<br />
Professional Development Scholarship. With the retirement of<br />
Sue Forbes Watson, one of Virginia’s longest serving School Board<br />
members, the HEF is excited to begin the Sue Forbes Watson<br />
Award for Educational Innovation in 2012-13.<br />
The HEF Board also experienced changes as we said good-bye to Bess Littlefield, Joe Cox,<br />
Mike Rosser and our President, Vern Inge. Thank you for six years of service to our students<br />
and teachers.<br />
The <strong>Hanover</strong> Education Foundation is pleased to announce that more than $300,000 was<br />
raised during <strong>2011</strong>-2012 for our students and educators despite the current economic<br />
climate. This Annual Review is a testament to how fortunate the HEF is to have individuals,<br />
community organizations, and business partners with a vision and passion for our students<br />
and staff. And they continue to “answer the call!”<br />
I am pleased to serve the school division as the HEF Executive Director with the support of a<br />
strong and motivated Board of Directors. Thanks for a great year!<br />
