Also, during this period <br />I worked with the District of Columbia School System in a Supervisory position. <br />In the late 70's I moved back to North Carolina and worked with Joint Orange - <br />Chatham Community Action as Director of the Chapel Hill - Carrboro Community <br />Action Center. Managed the Clothing Closet for elderly and disadvantaged citizens <br />and worked closely with the Meals on Wheels Program. <br />I realized my true calling was in education, so I moved to Cumberland County and <br />taught there for seventeen year. During this period I also taught several graduate <br />level Statistical and Data Analysis classes at Fayetteville State University. <br />I moved to Sanford July 30, 1994. My first year here I taught first grade at J. Glenn <br />Edwards Elementary School, the following three years I was Lead Teacher - <br />Community Liaison for Edwards. I then was hired as a Specialist for the Even Start <br />• Family Literacy Program, also on that campus.
