VOTE GRETA CARTER LINCOLN PARISH SCHOOL BOARD - DISTRICT 2
Meet Greta L. Carter
For Greta, education begins with understanding the individual child: recognizing strength, identifying needs, and providing the support and opportunity each student needs to thrive.
That belief was shaped by 15 wonderful years at The Shelton School in Dallas, where Greta served as the lead technology educator and Dean of Students. There she worked with intelligent, capable students with learning differences such as dyslexia, dyscalculia, ADHD, language-based differences, processing and executive-function challenges.
Combined with her Master's degree in Human Development and Early Childhood Disorders with an emphasis in developmental psychology from the University of Texas in Dallas, that experience reinforced a principle that continues to guide her: children do not have to learn alike to learn well.
Greta believes high expectations and individualized support belong together. When educators understand how students learn, recognize their strengths, and have the tools to respond to their needs, children have greater opportunities to succeed.
That is what Every Child Seen means: knowing the learner behind the test score, providing support when it is needed, offering greater challenges when students are ready, and ensuring every child has the opportunity to reach their potential.
Greta is ready to bring that perspective and her experience in education, human development, developmental psychology, technology, leadership, and student advocacy to the Lincoln Parish School Board.
Every Child Seen. Every School Strong.

Every child deserves a strong academic foundation and the opportunity to reach his or her full potential.
That means strengthening early literacy, maintaining high academic expectations, providing meaningful enrichment and technology-rich learning opportunities, and making sure students receive the individualized support they need when they need it.
Success should not depend on which neighborhood a child lives in or which school a child attends.
Excellence should be the expectation across Lincoln Parish.

When we strengthen the people inside our schools, we strengthen the schools themselves.

Accountability, Equity & Community Voice
Every student deserves access to excellent teaching, meaningful opportunities, appropriate resources, and a school community committed to that child’s success.
Our decisions should be guided by clear goals, measurable outcomes, responsible stewardship, and open communication with the people we serve.

Every student deserves access to excellent teaching, meaningful opportunities, appropriate resources, and a school community committed to that child’s success.
Our decisions should be guided by clear goals, measurable outcomes, responsible stewardship, and open communication with the people we serve.
District 2 families should have a voice in the decisions that affect their children and their neighborhoods.
I believe in listening before deciding, asking difficult questions when necessary, studying the evidence, and measuring whether our decisions are actually improving outcomes for students.
