My name is Jaylen Custis. I’m 18 years old (will be 19 by the time of the election) and I’m a military child. I was born in Minot North Dakota, raised in Brooklyn Nee York and have been to a few countries and states in my lifetime. I have been inside the Woodbridge District a majority of my life. From 1st, 3rd, 7th, 8th, 9th-12th grade I have been in Prince William County. I graduated from Forest Park High School and was elected SCA President there.
- Safety and Security. We must crack down on drugs and other illegal substances that continue to infiltrate our schools. As well as combating bullying inside our schools, to ensure that students feel safe going and coming home from school.
- Providing more money to improve the infrastructure inside our schools especially to our older schools on the eastern part of the county. The same issues when it comes to heating and cooling or power outages shouldn’t still be here from when I was in 1st grade. We need someone advocating and bring more funds to our schools.
- We must increase the standards of education. 65% isn’t a passing grade we have to raise the standards in order to ensure that our students are well prepared and ready to be successful in life in the real world.
Bullying is a big issue for me and it’s something that I have grown very passionate about after talking with parents and hearing the stories that their children have faced inside our school system, especially to elementary age children. We have to ensure that students are safe inside of school and we must hold those bullies accountable for their actions.
