The spotlight series continues today with Mrs. Teresa Blanks and Mrs. Cynthia Moore. In terms of combined experience, these ladies have worked together for 47 years. Mrs. Blanks has been with Pender County Schools since 2001, which gives her a total of 22 years as a bus driver and cafeteria worker.
Mrs. Moore has been with Pender County Schools since 1999, which gives her 24 years of experience as a bus driver, bus monitor, and cafeteria worker. There is no substitute for work experience, especially experience that relates solely to one place.
These ladies have been through the good and bad times together, and they still show up excited to serve our students every day. We thank you both for your service to Pender County Schools.
