“Let us foster representation, embrace our cultures, educate our communities, uplift our neighbors, and encourage the continuing celebration of Black Excellence.” #BlackHistory #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackHistoryAllYear
On Friday I had the honor and privilege to see a project I’ve been organizing come to life. New Hope Elementary had its FIRST Black Excellence Festival in honor of Black history month. We had student and community performers dazzle our stage with amazing talent! Along with graffiti walls, and craft stations to make drums, kente cloths, and beats! Local Black-owned businesses set up as a mini-market in our gym, along with Black owned food trucks outside! We also had a pop up nail salon and a barber shop giving free services to our community! Our kids participated in volleyball and cheer/step clinics sponsored by Duke Volleyball and UNC’s Blue Lightning Stomp & Cheer team. We showcased collaborative school wide student art pieces based on the work of Alma Thomas. Our amazing PTSA sponsored Black History trivia for prizes, and a raffle of books by Black authors, and gifts/gift certificates from Black owned businesses in the community! A live wax museum where our students portrayed Black pioneers & revolutionaries! I could not have made it happen without the support & dedication of our school staff, PTSA, our beloved students, families, volunteers, & businesses. I am beyond grateful for our school community entrusting me with leading this phenomenal event. Let us foster representation, embrace our cultures, educate our communities, uplift our neighbors, and encourage the continuing celebration of Black Excellence. #blackhistorymonth #blackexcellence #blackhistorymonth2024 #schoolsocialwork #everykideveryday #communityengagement #blackjoy #excellenceineducation #socialworker #eventmanagement #thrivingtogether #unc #chapelhill #projectmanagement #revolutionary #education #embracechange #studentengagement #familyengagement #communityoutreach #success #representationmatters #uplift #celebratediversity University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill UNC School of Social Work Orange County Schools

Orange County Board of Education Hires New Superintendent, Dr. Danielle Jones Orange County Schools is thrilled to announce the selection and election of Dr. Danielle Jones, a distinguished education leader and US Air Force veteran, as its next superintendent. Dr. Jones’s tenure will officially commence on February 1, 2024. https://lnkd.in/eDSUpgVA After a meticulous review process that included applications from a diverse pool of twenty-six highly qualified candidates from nine different states and territories, the Board of Education enthusiastically chose Dr. Jones based on her extensive track record of success, her exemplary leadership, and her unwavering dedication to students and staff. The Board is confident that Dr. Jones’s vision and expertise will propel the district to new heights of achievement. Dr. Jones currently serves as assistant superintendent for middle schools for Durham Public Schools (DPS), where she supervises twelve principals and ensures the successful implementation of the district’s strategic plan. The schools in her portfolio have consistently made impressive academic gains over time; in 2023, all twelve schools increased proficiency levels, and half were in the top 20% of schools in the state for their academic growth. Prior to becoming assistant superintendent, Dr. Jones served as a coach and principal supervisor for DPS, where her leadership directly contributed to district-high gains in 6th and 8th grade math. Dr. Jones also served as a highly successful principal and assistant principal in Franklin County Schools and a teacher in the Wake County Public School System. She began her career as a middle school teacher in Youngsville, North Carolina. Dr. Jones is a graduate of the North Carolina School Superintendents’ Association (NCSSA) Aspiring Superintendents Executive Leadership Program. Her leadership has been recognized with the 2022 Dr. Sam J. Houston, Jr. Leadership Award from NCSSA and the 2022 Central Office Personnel to Watch Award from the North Carolina Association for Middle Level Education. Her commitment to education is complemented by her four years of service in the US Air Force. Join us in congratulating Dr. Jones, and learn more on the OCS website ⤴
