WCPSS HR administrator recognized

Teresa Lynn Cunningham-Brown, Director of Recruitment and Retention in WCPSS Human Resources, was one of a number of HR Executives highlighted in a recent edition of Profiles in Diversity Journal. Cunningham-Brown was part of a grant writing team that secured a $2 million federal grant to "Grow Our Own" helping teacher assistants to become teachers. She developed a Teacher Education Diversity Roundtable where WCPSS HR staff worked with representatives of Historically Black Colleges and Universities to facilitate the hiring of minority teachers. She was the first educator in NC to earn Cornell University's credentials as a Certified Diversity Professional after taking part in a year-long course and passing an exam.
