Thank You Flow Honda!

We all know the difficult economic times many states are facing. Even in the midst of this, many businesses are continuing to support education in many ways and for this we are grateful. As I have spent the week at the North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching (NCCAT) with other regional and district level Teachers of the Year, I have learned of many businesses across our state that have stepped in to help with educational programs and support. Thank you to all of the businesses that recognize the hard work and dedication of so many great teachers across our state. From providing automobiles for the tenure of local Teachers of the Year to funding programs to help at risk students in our communities, many of you of stepped up and we appreciate your help!

Flow Honda out of Winston-Salem was kind enough to donate a beautiful new Honda Accord for my personal use this year. I love it...and the new car smell! Greg Ralston and his staff at Flow Honda have been supporting their local TOY program for five years now and I am thankful to Greg for supporting the State TOY program this year. Greg and Maggie, you guys are great! Thanks so much for your help and your continued support of education.
