Name: Christina Wolfrom

Age: 37

How many years have you lived in Tabernacle? 35

Family: Three children

Education: Bachelor’s of science in accounting, University of Delaware.

Profession: I am a CPA who owns an accounting firm that provides fractional accounting services to small business and nonprofits.

Is this the first time you have run for a seat for the board? No, I was appointed to the board in June 2025 to fill a vacancy.

Community involvement: I’ve lived in Tabernacle my entire life. I went through these schools myself, and now I’m raising my own family here with children in pre-K, second and fourth grade. I’m regularly involved in school events, attend board and community meetings, and stay connected with other parents to understand what families are experiencing. My accounting firm supports schools and nonprofits, some locally.

Why are you running for election?

I am running for an elected seat to continue serving our community with the trust of voters behind me. With a strong background in finance, I bring expertise in strategic budgeting and helping nonprofits succeed with extremely limited resources, skills our district needs as we navigate financial challenges. My goal is to ensure every decision keeps students at the center while protecting the district’s long-term health.

What is one area you would like to concentrate on if elected?

I’d like to focus on strengthening policies that ensure our schools remain fiscally stable, academically strong, and inclusive for every student. My focus would be on making sure board policies and budget decisions are consistently aligned with our district’s mission: providing a safe, inclusive, and high-quality education. That means asking thoughtful questions, staying fact-based and non-partisan, and ensuring resources are directed toward programs and supports that help every student feel valued, challenged and prepared for the future.

Community involvement: I am an active member of Tabernacle Woman’s Association and treasurer for the Education Foundation of Tabernacle Township.

Why are you running for an elected seat?

Tabernacle has gone through a lot in the last few years, including continued state aid cuts. As a regular board member, I hear the struggles we go through as a district and want to do what I can to help.

What is one area you would like to concentrate on if elected?

Ensuring we find creative solutions to continue to bring the best education, school offerings, and services we can to all of our students.
