RICHMOND, Va. Richmond Public Schools held its first of a series event Saturday to help its families and students return to in-person learning for the upcoming school year.
âThis is the goal to get families engaged early to get them thinking about what reopening is going to look like. To be able to let them know that we re here. We support them, whatever they need â providing resources, answer any questions, and to get from behind the screens,â said RPS School Board Ninth District Representative Nicole Jones.
SUMMARY Mary-Cooke Branch Munford was an advocate of woman suffrage, interracial cooperation, education, health, and labor reforms. Armed with a pedigree that connected her to some of the wealthiest families of Virginia, she threw herself into such “unfeminine” pursuits as education reform and civil rights. She helped to found the Richmond Education Association, was the first woman to serve on the city’s school board, was a member of the University of Virginia‘s board of visitors, and was the first woman to serve on the College of William and Mary‘s board of visitors. Munford also served on the board of the National Urban League, was a founding member of the Virginia Inter-Racial League, and became a trustee at the historically black Fisk University in Nashville, Tennessee.
