GCS Employee of the Month for May 2008

Thanks to the efforts of Keith G. Pemberton, impressionable young students at Jackson Middle have the tools they need to strive, achieve and excel. This social worker dedicates his time to mentoring at-risk students with the “Gentlemen of Jackson” and overseeing the Students Against Violence Everywhere club. He obtained funds from local organizations in order to help his students visit colleges and universities during their spring break. Whatever it takes, Pemberton makes sure that his students understand the opportunities ahead of them in their lives.

“Mr. Pemberton is a true advocate for students,” said Jackson Principal Rodney Wilds. “His dedication and compassion are evident every day, and Jackson Middle School is a better place because of him.”

As Employee of the Month, Pemberton received a $50 gift card from Sam’s Club, which has partnered with Guilford County Schools to support the employee recognition program. Pemberton’s photo will hang at the district’s central offices and his school, as well as at Sam’s Club.
