Dopp, Arvid (School Board Candidate - 1967)

Mr. Dopp has been connected with the county extension office in Clark County for seven years, and is the county agricultural agent for Clark County. He has a Bachelor of Science degree from the State University at Platteville, and a master’s degree in extension education from the University of Wisconsin.

Mr. Dopp taught high school agriculture and science for four years before joining the extension service. His wife also is a teacher, as was his mother. The Dopp’s have two sons, seven and 10, both of whom are enrolled in the Neillsville Public School system.

In summarizing his interest in becoming a school board member, Mr. Dopp said: "It is a job very few people want to do, but one which has to be done. I feel that education is one of the biggest businesses in our rural communities. There are few involvements that are as essential as our educational system. I have a few ideas I think are pertinent to the situation here and that should be investigated at least for possible implementation."
