Please cast your vote for Northwood’s very own Jason Freeman, who was nominated for NC School Heroes!

You would not only be honoring Mr Freeman, but also supporting Northwood! The top 10 NC School Heroes, and their affiliated K–12 NC public schools will win $10,000. You can vote once a day through March 31, 2019. https://www.ncschoolheroes.com/contests/entries 

Here is what the person who nominated him wrote:

Mr. Freeman is not only a product of Chatham County Schools, but has, in his 1st year as the band director, successfully carried the Northwood High School Marching Chargers through an All-Superior season. He and his students form lasting relationships because Mr. Freeman not only teaches the art of music, he also teaches the art of life. He exemplifies the meaning of “Do it with Pride” on the field, and in the classroom. Mr. Freeman, the guy, the mentor, the hero!!

Congratulations on the nomination, Mr Freeman!
