20060910 Dave Roush candidate for Carroll County Board of Education

Dave Roush candidate for Carroll County Board of Education

Mr. Roush does not have a web site. However, a brief synopsis of Mr. Roush’s candidacy can be found on the Carroll County Times web site here.

The Baltimore Sun did an article on the Board of Education candidates on August 27th, 2006: “8 candidates in contest for 3 school board seats.” Gina Davis wrote the article.

Her introduction to the school board race reads:

“Carroll County's school board members juggle many demands, including keeping pace with steadily increasing student enrollment, implementing state requirements such as providing all-day kindergarten and maintaining a rigorous academic program.

“With hopes of influencing the countless decisions that affect the nearly 30,000-student district, eight candidates -- including two incumbents -- are vying for three open seats on the school board.

“The six top vote-getters in the Sept. 12 primary election will proceed to the Nov. 7 general election.

“The nonpartisan elections for the five-member school board are staggered, with two seats open in presidential election years and three slots open in the years of gubernatorial contests. School board members are elected to four-year terms.”


A synopsis of Mr. Roush’s credentials, found in the article, are as follows:

David H. Roush

Age: 63

Residence: Westminster

Family: Married; two adult children

Occupation: Retired engineer, Lehigh Cement Co.

Education: Master's of business administration, Frostburg State College; bachelor's degree in chemical engineering, Lehigh University (Pa.)

Issues: "It is clear that facilities issues are becoming more and more important for the school system. We need to provide for and balance the needs for new schools, added classrooms, renovation/expansion of existing schools, and ongoing maintenance."

Roush says his training and experiences as an engineer and plant manager for Lehigh Cement for more than 38 years gives him unique qualifications to address facilities issues.

"As plant manager of Lehigh's Union Bridge plant during the recent $300 million modernization project, I was very involved in the largest construction project ever in Carroll County, from the first permitting to start-up and the first year of operations."
