To the Citizens of

District 5,

 

My name is Joe N. Webb, and I am a candidate for the Greene County Board of Education representing District 5. I am seeking this position to bring fresh vision and innovative ideas that will inspire and motivate our students to reach their fullest potential.

 

I am a proud 1982 graduate of Eutaw High School and earned my bachelor’s degree in criminal justice from the University of Phoenix. My life and career have been dedicated to serving Greene County and investing in our children, families, and community.

 

For 22 years, I worked for the Greene County School System in various roles. I began my career as the Transportation Supervisor, ensuring safe arrivals and departures for our students. I also worked as a Parent Involvement Facilitator, Substitute Teacher, Alternative School Instructor, Behavior Aide, Resource Officer/Security Guard, Maintenance Department, and Truancy Officer. These roles gave me firsthand experience with the academic, behavioral, and safety needs of our students.

 

Currently, I am employed at the University of Alabama as a driver for HEAR-HERE Alabama, a program that brings healthcare to those with hearing loss in rural Alabama. I previously served as the Coordinator for COVID-19 Vaccine Education at the Rural Alabama Prevention Center for three years under a grant funded by the State of Alabama. In that role, I worked to educate and protect our community during a critical time.

 

In addition to my professional experience, I am Pastor of New Generation Community Outreach Center and have served as  President of the PTA at Greene County High School and Carver Middle School. My community service also includes serving on the Children’s Policy Council Board, the Greene County Parks and Recreation Board, Greene County DHR Policy Council Board, and as both a member and president of several other local organizations throughout Greene County.

 

My vision for our school system is to provide a successful and productive learning environment for our students. This can be achieved by:

 

    ▪    Housing students in safe and secure buildings

    ▪    Increasing parent and community involvement

    ▪    Giving teachers tools and resources to motivate students

 

I will work diligently alongside the Superintendent and fellow Board members to ensure that both students and teachers have the tools, resources, and support they need to succeed.

 

Strong schools build strong communities. I respectfully ask for your support and your vote on May 19, 2026, as we work together to strengthen the future of Greene County.

 

Joe N. Webb

Candidate, Greene County Board of Education – District 5
