“I am so excited to come and be able to introduce myself to the people in Mesquite,” said Shelly Crawford. “I really want to help serve them and be able to in the near future make some changes greatly needed in education in Nevada.”

Candidate Shelly Crawford is currently a principal in Las Vegas at Ronnow Elementary School. She has been a principal and/or administrative experience over the last 20 years. She currently has a candidacy for an Educational Doctorate in Leadership and Administration from William Howard Taft University.

She is also an active member of the National Guard. She currently oversees community outreach, equity, diversity, and inclusion for the National Guard. Her husband, Mike, is also an Army Veteran. She also has two teenage children.

She will be looking into providing an insight into the initiatives she has planned to help higher education in Nevada get restored credibility and get some essential changes needed in lower education to make sure students are fully prepared and ready for higher education.

The Virgin River Times has plans of providing more opportunities for the community to have opportunities to learn more about a variety of subjects, including education in Nevada, crime, social issues, history education, professional education, and more. This “Meet and Greet” with Shelly Crawford is just the start of similar meetings, workshops, and training.
