North Carolina School for the Deaf teacher earns board certification
Leslie Corley, middle school guidance counselor at the North Carolina School for the Deaf, recently received notification of being a National Board Certified School Counselor.
National Board Certification is a way to recognize the accomplished teaching that is occurring in the classroom. Corley joins the ranks of other North Carolina teachers who are leading the nation in the number of teachers achieving certification. National Board Certification is the highest credential in the teaching profession. It is achieved through a rigorous process of assessing what teachers should know and be able to do.
Corley is a 28-year employee, earning her undergraduate degree from UNC-Greensboro in social work and her graduate degree from Appalachian State University in school counseling.
She has been employed at the North Carolina School for the Deaf since August 1983. She began her tenure at the school serving as the school social worker and then became the middle school counselor in 2000.
Janet McDaniel, principal of NC School for the Deaf, said, "It is always great when one of our teachers receives recognition for the outstanding job they do in the classroom. School counselors serve a vital role in student achievement and Mrs. Corley is a school counselor who daily recognizes that our students are worth whatever it takes. We are pleased to have her join the ranks of other National Board Certified teachers."
Kimberly Toth-Lazjer, high school art teacher; Millie King, middle school math teacher; and Dr. Jana Lollis, high school science teacher, are the other teachers at the school with National Board Certification.
