The Vision for Sully District
Sully District is already a leader in FCPS, home to immersion programs, premiere AAP centers, and new facilities. Molly’s goal is to ensure the district remains a "beacon" by providing robust representation and a board member who listens to the residents first.
"I cannot simply gripe about decisions being made; I have to do something to help. I’m asking for your partnership to keep Sully District the premiere place to educate our children."
