COLUMBUS, OHIO— The Ohio Parole Board on Friday recommended that the governor not pardon a woman who was jailed for using her father’s address to enroll her children in a neighboring school district.

Kelley Williams-Bolar, of Akron, served nine days in jail earlier this year for falsifying information on records that she used to send her daughters to a school outside the city. She said her conviction for felony records tampering threatens her efforts to earn her teacher’s license.

The board said Williams-Bolar could have solved her schooling situation legitimately and was dishonest before and after her conviction. They also rejected Williams-Bolar’s arguments that her conviction harmed her future plans, noting that she has hardly made the efforts necessary to obtain a degree to teach.

Williams-Bolar had told the parole board in July that she was remorseful for lying and would do things differently if given the chance.
