Seven On To College
"I've had just about as many children in the high school as anybody in this room," said Lester Deal, noting that he had seven graduate and go on to college. “When they quit, they quit on their own. It wasn’t due to a fault with Rappahannock County High School,” he said, adding that Wingfield had even convinced him to go back to college at Germanna.
Reporting that she has taught 12 years, three in Rappahannock County, Sally Bristol said, “I don't think you can find a finer staff of teachers... They’re all exceptionally fine people to work with and a lot of them wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for Mr. Wingfield.”
Ron Wiley described the RCHS principal as "a consistent man, a man of high morals and high values.” He told the board that his daughter who graduated from RCHS was doing well at the University of Virginia while a classmate of hers from the high school had been accepted at Johns Hopkins and several other prestigious institutions of higher education. “I don’t see how Mr. Wingfield can be held accountable for a lack of quality education. A lot of times it’s in the student. A lot of times, it’s in the family,” Wiley said.
While acknowledging that she has been very impressed with superintendent Robert Estabrook, Ruth Williams noted that Wingfield has the confidence of his students and his faculty. "I hope and pray you keep him.”
Carson Johnson took the school board to task for its lack of preparation for Tuesday’s meeting. “This is the second or third time I’ve been to one of these meetings. And although I'm interested in quality education, it’s probably the last one I’ll attend. If there was ever a fire trap, it’s here tonight! The people of Rappahannock County deserve better planning for this type of meeting,” he maintained.
