Johnston County Public Schools and West Clayton Elementary were excited to welcome North Carolina Department of Public Instruction Superintendent Maurice “Mo” Green earlier today.
Superintendent Green interacted with students and staff during carpool, breakfast, and while touring the school building. Afterwards, he engaged in meaningful conversation with district leaders, including board members, the Superintendent, senior leadership, and the school's leadership team. During the conversation, he elaborated on a few pillars of his strategic plan, including preparing each student for the next phase in life, revering public school educators, enhancing parent, caregiver, and community support, and ensuring healthy, safe, and secure learning environments, to name a few.
Special thanks to Superintendent Green and his team for visiting West Clayton Elementary and for their continued support of Johnston County Public Schools!
