Jaclyn T. “Jackie” Walker

Jaclyn “Jackie” Walker serves on the Portsmouth School Board in a term listed through December 2028. Her official biography describes a career in special education and community programs. She leads the M.A.N. Foundation and has worked on reentry services, family literacy and mentoring through the BOSS initiative.

Walker’s education includes Norfolk State University, Cambridge College and doctoral study at Capella University. Her background connects the work of schools with the support families may need outside the classroom. That makes practical questions about access, transitions and communication especially relevant: which students can participate, how families learn about opportunities and how a program’s progress is assessed.

Residents can find her official biography through the School Board directory and follow divisionwide policy through meeting materials. When contacting a member about a concern, name the program or policy, explain the issue and request a clear next step. Individual special-education services and student records require the appropriate school process; the public board meeting is a place for policy discussion rather than private case details.
