Carroll County Board of Education member Corey Groseclose has announced his resignation from the board in an effort to support his daughterās goal to become a teacher in Carroll County Schools.
āMy daughter has been looking at positions in the Carroll County school district for the last two or three years. So, as a family, weāve talked about the ramifications of that a couple of times in the past. Weāve talked about what that would mean for me and my role in the board, and what that would mean for her in the district,ā he explained.
Miranda Groseclose Perez is a 2016 graduate of Carroll County High School. She has accepted the English Language Learners teaching position at Carroll County Middle School.
āBased on the way the law is written, both of us cannot work in the district at the same time,ā Groseclose said. āBased on me wanting to help her be able to fulfill her goals of working in the district, Iāve decided to step down from my role in the district. After ten years of service, this was not a decision that was made lightly.ā
Groseclose said he is disappointed to not be able to complete his term on the school board, but feels this is a good reason to resign. āOver the past decade, I have had the privilege of witnessing many changes and being part of important decisions that have helped shape the future of our schools. While there have certainly been challenges along the way, I am proud of the work we have accomplished together and especially proud of the people who work every day to provide our students with the best education and opportunities possible,ā Groseclose said in his resignation letter.
Perez is married to a native Spanish speaker and has community connections to many of the students she will have, Groseclose said, noting he believes that it will help her develop strong connections with her students right away.
āI think it will be a good move for her and I want to support that,ā he said.
Board Chairperson Gwen Chapman, Vice Chairperson DāAnne Smith and board member Carolyn Jones all praised Groseclose and his commitment to Carroll County Schools.
āItās been a pleasure serving with Corey Groseclose. His contributions have been insightful and he has contributed to the forward progression of our school district,ā Chapman said.
After the board accepts his resignation, they have 60 days to fill the vacancy. Anyone interested in applying for the vacancy can pick up an application at the board of education office or use this link: Board member Application.pdf
