Office Support Is Key Part of Operations

Cindy Kernodle says she’s is “just office support,” but to District Relations, she is a woman of many talents. Whether she is managing the front desk, assisting with event planning, overseeing the department’s purchasing, helping guide media calls, lending a calm voice of reason during a crisis, working late or coming in early, her good nature is contagious. Her kind sincerity to even the tensest of situations immediately eases emotions of those involved. For her nurturing demeanor and depth of understanding of GCS operations, Kernodle was selected as the September GCS Employee of the Month.

As Employee of the Month, Kernodle received a $50 gift card from Sam’s Club, which has partnered with GCS to support the employee recognition program. During the month of September, her photo will hang at all GCS main offices as well as the Wendover Avenue Sam’s Club. In addition, the Guilford County Board of Education will recognized her at its September 13 meeting.
