⭐️ Congratulations to our May Excellence and Opportunity Champion, Ms. Suzannah Pessagno, McKinney Vento/Basic Needs Liaison for Chatham County Schools! Her nominator said:

"Suzannah consistently exceeds the expectations of her role. Every day, she proactively connects with our McKinney-Vento families to ensure they can access school, essential basic needs, and critical community supports. She collaborates closely with a wide network of community agencies, tirelessly advocating to secure resources for families in need.

Suzannah’s dedication, compassion, and relentless advocacy made the difference in a recent situation with a family in need, helping them move from crisis to stability. Her work exemplifies the very best of student and family support and reflects a deep commitment to serving our community."

We wrapped up today’s school tour with Ms. Lindsay Reusser from Senator Budd’s office at Seaforth High School!

From a 97% graduation rate and nearly 3,000 dual enrollment college credits earned, to state championships, award-winning fine arts programs, and more than $10 million in scholarships earned by AVID students, Seaforth continues to show what excellence looks like both inside and outside the classroom.

A huge thank you to Principal Dr. Randy St. Clair, the leadership team, staff, and students for the warm welcome and for showcasing the incredible opportunities available to CCS students.

Our second stop today with Ms. Lindsay Reusser from Senator Budd’s office took us to J.S. Waters School! ❤️🐻 From the district’s highest 5th grade math and science proficiency scores to the first Olympic-certified archery program in North Carolina, J.S. Waters continues to create unique opportunities for students while driving academic growth. We also loved learning about their student-developed running club and the incredible work happening to support career and college readiness through AVID strategies. Thank you to Principal Matthew Wilkins, Assistant Principal Floyd Glenn, staff, and students for sharing the amazing things happening at JSW! #ONEChatham #ElevateChatham
