The VCU School of Education's Dr. Genevieve Siegel-Hawley, associate professor in the Department of Educational Leadership, is featured in an article in the June 23, 2020 issue of the Chesterfield Observer on the Chesterfield School Board's proposal to shift a high-end residential subdivision from the attendance zone of a predominantly Black school to one that is predominantly white.
