School District's Cabinet Assistants
Ensure Smooth Operation of Day-to-Day Functions
Fayetteville, NC — Special time was taken recently during Administrative Professionals Day to recognize the hard work and dedication of Cumberland County Schools' administrative assistants who support Superintendent Dr. Marvin Connelly, Jr., and the members of his Cabinet.
Combined, the 10 Cabinet Assistants bring more than 195 years of experience to Central Services. As a result, Dr. Connelly felt a Professional Learning Community (PLC) should be established among the Cabinet Assistants. Linda Caesar, Dr. Connelly's assistant, was charged with leading the team to increase their administrative skills to operating with 'professional excellence' in the workplace.
"Coming together builds camaraderie and fosters a supportive environment where each member can grow and thrive," said Caesar, who has worked as Dr. Connelly's assistant since 2022. "Our professionalism and commitment to excellence ensures the smooth operation of CCS' top leadership functions."
Since the formation of the PLC, Caesar remarked that all Cabinet Assistants have obtained certification and been sworn in as notaries for the State of North Carolina. She expressed her belief that this achievement underscores their dedication to professional growth and their commitment to community service.
