Susan Swafford is Wednesday’s Hometown Hero.

Susan volunteers in schools.  She is the outgoing president of the Glenwood Elementary School PTA.  She also works with the Dual Language program.

From the Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools website:

“Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools is proud to offer language programs that prepare students for the 21st century world in which we live. We recognize the need to ensure that our students are well-prepared to excel in a competitive, multilingual environment.”

This includes a Mandarin program at Glenwood Elementary School.
