Greensboro, NC – The North Carolina School Boards Association (NCSBA) presented its County Commissioners of the Year Award to the Chatham Board of County Commissioners during the NCSBA Annual Conference held from November 18-20. The County Commissioners of the Year Award is given to a board of county commissioners that is nominated by the local board of education in recognition of their extraordinary efforts.
In nominating the Chatham County commissioners for this award, the board of education in Chatham County considered their commissioners a close partner to their school district, actively participating in school events and maintaining regular and open communication with the board of education.
