2026 Board of Education Candidate Forum

  • Whitaker Campus Commons, Hood College 401 Rosemont Avenue/Brodbeck Drive Frederick, MD, 21701 United States (map)

Join the Frederick County Special Education Citizens Advisory Committee (SECAC) for an important community conversation focused on the future of special education in our schools. The SECAC invites you to hear directly from candidates about their priorities, perspectives, and commitment to supporting students with disabilities and their families.

The evening will feature:

  • Opening remarks by SECAC Chair, Jamie Shopland

  • Moderation by SECAC Treasurer, Jenn Wheat

  • Eight confirmed candidates participating in a structured forum and discussion

This is a valuable opportunity for families, educators, and community members to engage with candidates and better understand where they stand on critical special education issues.

Important Note: The Frederick County Special Education Citizens Advisory Committee is a nonpartisan body and does not endorse any candidate or political party. This forum is intended solely to inform and engage the community.
