School Board Member for the Gainesville District

About Jennifer T. Wall

Jennifer Wall graduated summa cum laude from Brigham Young University with a degree in Humanities-English in 1992. She earned a Juris Doctor in 1997 from the J. Reuben Clark Law School. Her focus in law school and in practice was state and local government and constitutional law. Mrs. Wall and her husband moved to Northern Virginia in 1999 to pursue professional opportunities after graduating from law school and doing postgraduate work in England. Before leaving practice to raise her family, Mrs. Wall worked in the field of legislative research.

Mrs. Wall has been a long-time volunteer in the community. She has served in middle and high school band and orchestra programs, as a chaperone for school events and field trips, with PTO activities and as a parent tutor in the classroom. Since 2017, through a structured grant-funded project, and in association with Children’s National Hospital’s First Steps Project, Mrs. Wall has provided emotional and instrumental peer support to parents of children newly diagnosed with chronic illness. Before that, she assisted in establishing and administering the J. Reuben Clark Law Society’s Religious Liberty Student Writing Competition, now in its 13th year.

As a board member, Mrs. Wall actively participates in professional development opportunities to improve her ability to represent her district’s students, families and teachers. Because of her commitment to excellence, she makes it a priority to visit school events and activities, to maintain awareness of issues and conditions in the 12 schools in the Gainesville district, and to provide responsive constituent services. Since her election in 2020, Mrs. Wall has served on the Safe Schools Advisory Council, School Health Advisory Board, and Internal Audit Committee, with the goal of seeking continuous improvement for Prince William County Public Schools. She served on Safe Schools through 2024, and in 2025 began serving on the School Health Advisory Board and the Joint Board of The Governor’s School @ Innovation Park, where she just completed a term as Chair.

Mrs. Wall and her husband have three children. All three of their children earned advanced diplomas from Battlefield High School in 2018, 2021, and 2023. Mrs. Wall and her family are active in community affairs and in their local church congregation.
