Union County Public Schools honored its May Influencers at the May 6 Board of Education meeting.

The Influencers program honors the enthusiasm, commitment and outstanding work ethic of UCPS staff members who consistently put in extra effort each day.

This recognition is special because it results from nominations from our staff, students, families and community members. These people see firsthand the positive impact these employees have on students and their peers.

The honorees were Cynthia Hinson, an exceptional children's teacher at Central Academy of Technology and Arts, and Millicent Lockhart, a transportation manager.

The employees were celebrated for exemplifying the performance, dedication and teamwork essential to the district's and its students' success. They received a certificate, a UCPS Influencers shirt and an Amazon gift card.
