RE-ELECT MARCELLUS HARRIS FOR NEWPORT NEWS CITY COUNCIL (NORTH DISTRICT)
MARCELLUS “B2” HARRIS III
A priority is the continued partnership between Newport News City Council and Newport News Public Schools in implementing best practices to ensure our school system is FULLy funded. In addition I will continue to work in tandem with North District School Board representatives, Marvin Harris and Douglas Brown to ensure the best interest of our schools is pre-eminent. Equipping students with the necessary school supplies in the 2nd half of the school in the annual Re-Up School Supply Drive provides students with the tools needed to finish out the school year strong.
Ensuring that ALL students have the ability to be well-rounded by enhancing academic curricula with assorted arts and athletic programs.
The enhancement of our local Parks and Recreational programs that is inclusive of all ages, in the provision of invigorating activities will remain a priority. Ensuring that there is access and appropriate lighting to fields and courts throughout the city of Newport News will assist in these efforts. The opening of the first lit basketball court in the North District is only the beginning in our quest for community members to enjoy recreational activities in a safer environment. Continuing to highlight our Youth School and Community Leaders will assist in letting our community know the great things our youth are doing in Newport News. Ensuring that ALL citizens feel valued will continue to be my obligation.
