Maritza Rosado began her career as an educator inspired by other educators who demonstrated professionalism and excellence. Through this motivation, she has impacted the Selma community in profound ways.
Her influence has not only motivated students and staff to be their best over the years, but has also changed the landscape of education throughout Johnston County and the State of North Carolina. She is currently in the running for 2026 Burroughs Wellcome Fund North Carolina Teacher of the Year, an honor she is truly worthy of receiving.
