Employee of the Month (June 2007)

Guilford County Schools Announce Cafeteria Manager as Employee of the Month

It takes a lot of hard work to keep the stomachs of elementary students full, but it takes even more work to keep the students, faculty and cafeteria staff happy day after day. Angie Maynard, the Alamance Elementary cafeteria manager, does just that and more. Often referred to as an angel around the school, she goes above and beyond to train, fill in and help as needed. She is so loved that some students make it a point to see “Ms. Angie” before they get in the lunch line, and her staff describes her as “an awesome person and wonderful to work for.” It is a great compliment to her dedication that her employees feel blessed to be part of her team.

As Employee of the Month, Maynard received a $50 gift card from Sam’s Club, which has partnered with GCS to support the employee recognition program. In addition, the Guilford County Board of Education will recognize her at its June 12 meeting.
