Chesapeake Board of Education

Glen Dale Chapman serving in my first term as a Chesapeake School Board member. Myself, my wife Carol, and our two children Andy and Kaylee reside in Chesapeake and are active in the school and community. I work at Columbia Gas as a FOL ( Supervisor ) and I am also on the Lawrence County Fair Board, Chesapeake Youth Football board, Chesapeake Community Center board and the Chesapeake Buddy basketball board. 

Panthers Pride means working hard, always trying to improve, holding yourself accountable for your actions, speaking the truth in as nice a way as possible, and everyone helping each other make our community the best it can be for our children.

My name is Kyle Webb and I have served on the Chesapeake School Board for 5 years. I have a wife, Shelby, of 12 years who teaches 2nd grade at Chesapeake Elementary. I have three children, Krew (10), Kree (8) Kane (5). My wife and I are both ‘09 graduates of Chesapeake and we bleed purple!! I received my Bachelors in Exercise Science in 2013 and Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Marshall University in 2016. I currently work at The Vitality Center at UK KDMC where I work primarily in orthopedics and post operative care. When I think of “Panther Pride”, I think of community. Chesapeake is full of great people, from teachers, educational staff, and admins to parents, families and involved community members that show up and sacrifice/support daily to provide our kids with the opportunity to succeed in whatever they choose to be a part of. “Be the Change” is something I like to follow. We have a community full of people that don’t wait on others, but who themselves step up daily to make the positive changes they want to see for our kids. Go Peake!!

I attended and graduated from Chesapeake School District in 1974 and attended Liberty University. My wife, Vickie Hamlin and I proudly raised two children, Bridget and Justin Hamlin. We have two grandsons, Parker and Hudson Hamlin, who both attend Chesapeake Schools and are our pride and joy!

Being retired allows me to invest my time in what matters the most to me, our community, our schools and my church. I proudly answer to the titles of Coach and PawPaw by many kids as they are two of my favorite roles. 

Four years ago, when I decided to run for the board of education, my desire was and continues  today to act as a sounding board and voice for our community by  acting in the best interest of our students. Our children are our future and deserve nothing but the best. 

To me, Panther Pride means being honored to be a member of this small community that has a huge heart for family values, for all who contribute positively to our village and who work tirelessly to make the best life possible for today and tomorrow. 

My name is Jeremy Estep, and I graduated from Chesapeake High School in 2000. I live in Chesapeake with my four sons: Jacob, a 2023 graduate of Chesapeake High School, Jackson, Elijah, who both attend Chesapeake High School, and Silas, a Chesapeake Elementary student. My wife of 16 years, Elena, has worked at various positions within the Chesapeake School District since 2022. I proudly served our country for 10 years in the US Army (2 tours in Operation Iraqi Freedom) and continue that service through my career at the VA Medical Center. 

My Panther Pride began early, when I was voted Most School Spirit in my graduating class! I continue to take pride within our schools and community by volunteering my time to several levels of Chesapeake sports teams and PANTHERHOOD. I believe it’s time to be the change we wish to see within our district, holding one another accountable, and making our community the best it can possibly be for our children.

My goal(s) for the district is for the schools to provide the best impacts and opportunities for all students and families. We should ensure all panthers know they are important and loved, WHILE HELPING them find their people and place. My goal is to serve those in need, while developing a new standard OF work ethics and promoting positive attitudes.

LET’S GO PEAKE!
