GCS Employee of the Month for January 2009

Some students need a little extra support to stay on track to graduate. That’s where Debbie Dowd comes in. She tracks down students who are absent from classes. She also serves on the Graduation Intervention and Positive Behavior Support Teams. Students know they can count on her to really listen to them.

According to Principal Dr. Travis Reeves, who nominated Debbie for the recognition, “She goes above and beyond in everything she does, and she truly exemplifies the excellence that Superintendent Green talks about when outlining his vision for the district.”

This social worker makes children her top priority and serves as a voice of reason in what can be a tumultuous time in a student’s life. For those reasons and so many more, she was selected as the Guilford County Schools (GCS) Employee of the Month.  

As Employee of the Month, Debbie received a $50 gift card from Sam’s Club, which has generously partnered with GCS to support the employee recognition program.
