Several staff within Clinton Schools will be recognized coming up this spring both regionally and at a state level.

At the Tuesday night Clinton Board of Education meeting, Superintendent Curt Nettles highlighted those individuals, including their food services director who he describes as a hard worker who leads by example and was recognized by the Regional Office of Education.

On the WHOW Morning Show Wednesday Nettles told Regional Radio there will be several staffers that will be recognized by the State Board of Education at its annual conference next month, including the district's early elementary and junior high school principals.

Nettles credits first-year principal Jessica Patrick and the preparations she took to be prepared for that role this year.
