The district also awarded Robert Bales of McDougle Middle its Principal of the Year honor, while Stacie Boyer of Ephesus Elementary was named the district’s Assistant Principal of the Year. Sherri Morris, director of talent acquisition and HR programming, received the Award for Excellence in District Administration.

The Recognition Reception, normally held as a gathering to honor many of the school system’s educators, was held virtually and later than normal due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

CHCCS Superintedent Pam Baldwin said in Friday’s release the system wanted to ensure its educators were still honored and celebrated despite being unable to hold the gathering in-person.

“The hard work and effort our staff have put in from the beginning of the year, to its unusual conclusion, is truly amazing,” said Baldwin. “It proves how dedicated the staff in Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools really are.”
