Civic Duty


“Knowledge is power. Information is liberating. Education is the premise of progress, in every society, in every family.”
- Kofi Annan

“Knowledge is power.” CCAP wants to equip you, the Coatesville community, with the knowledge of who the candidates are in each region. We want to provide them an opportunity to share what they believe they can bring to the Coatesville Area School Board.  Our mission in doing this series is to empower the Coatesville community to make the most informed decision at the ballot box on May 21st.

“Information is liberating.” At our core CCAP believes that if the community can be informed with accurate information & data about the occurrences in the district, we will be able to liberate the community to take action by moving one step towards making a positive change in our district. 

"Education is the premise of progress.” We cannot move forward or stand united as a community without educating ourselves with facts.  To improve this district we must be open-minded, work together, and be willing to learn from others and our own mistakes.  Educating ourselves through facts on those who will be running our district is the premise of Coatesville’s progress.

No matter your feelings on the current state of the district today -it’s undeniable that for most of us school board members make decisions that affect our everyday way of life.  It is our responsibility to be well informed about the candidates we are choosing. At the end of the day, our school board should be answering to the community they represent.


This year we have the obligation to be part of the solution. Our votes drive who will make the future decisions in our district. Coatesville has SIX seats up for reelection this year.

Two seats in Region I 
(City of Coatesville & Valley Township)
Tyrone Carter    |     Mary Ann Harris    |    James Hills    |    Jill Santiago


Two seats in Region II  

(Caln & West Brandywine)

Henry Assetto    |     Becky Harlan    |    Ann Wuertz


Two seats in Region III 
(East Fallowfield, Sadsbury & West Caln)
Andrew Finkbohner    |    Rob Marshall    |    Amelia Mills 


Throughout this series we will be introducing you to each of the candidates so you can familiarize yourself with your region. You will also hear (in their own words) the candidates' platforms and intentions for running.  To give every candidate an opportunity to share, we contacted each in advance with the same list of questions. We believe you will value knowing the candidates’ visions and hopes for Coatesville Area School District.
