My name is Woodrow Chatman, a 39-year-old educator passionate about serving and empowering youth. I was born and raised in Dayton, Ohio, and am the only child of Woodrow and Debra Chatman, who have been married for over 36 years. Growing up, my mother’s dedication to childcare and my father’s steady work in maintenance instilled in me a strong work ethic, a sense of responsibility, and a lifelong commitment to community service.

My academic journey began at Lincoln Elementary, continued at Fairview Middle School, and culminated with my graduation from Colonel White High School in 2003. During high school, I had the honor of serving as president of the National Honor Society, editor of the yearbook, and maintained a 3.8 GPA, ranking third in a class of 213 students.

I initially pursued a degree in Business Management at Hampton University, but after transferring to Wright State University, I discovered my true calling—education. This path ultimately led me to Bowie State University, where I earned my Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education and Special Education.

My professional journey began early, at age 14, with a summer job at the local Priority Board in my neighborhood. That early exposure to civic work sparked a lifelong passion for youth advocacy and community engagement. I later served two years with AmeriCorps and worked with the Dayton Urban League, where I led youth tutoring and mentoring programs and organized the first annual Black College Tour.

One of my most transformative experiences came through the Children’s Defense Fund’s Freedom Schools, where I spent over seven years growing from a servant leader intern to a program director. This work deepened my passion for education and social change, and grounded my belief in the power of culturally responsive learning environments.

After relocating to Maryland, I continued my mission through work with nonprofit organizations and spent eight years with Prince George’s County Public Schools (PGCPS) as a paraprofessional and classroom educator. I’ve taught students in grades K–5, including roles as a kindergarten lead and fifth-grade math instructor, gaining a well-rounded perspective on developmental and academic needs across elementary levels.

Outside of the classroom, I am deeply committed to my role as a husband and father of two beautiful children. My family fuels my purpose and strengthens my dedication to creating pathways for young people to thrive.

As an educator, my philosophy is rooted in meeting students where they are—socially, emotionally, and academically—and empowering them to grow into their full potential. I believe that education is not just about teaching content, but about inspiring purpose and building community. Guided by the belief that “our communities are like banks—you only get out what you put in,” I remain committed to depositing positivity, discipline, and leadership into every student and school I serve.
