Connie Stallings works in the lunchroom at the Child Development Center.
“Connie is one of our hardest working employees,” said Emily Smith, Cullman County child nutrition director. “She makes it a point to ask each child that comes through the line if they are having a good day, and will take care of them the entire time they are in the lunchroom. She makes sure her students do not leave that lunchroom hungry.”
Cullman County Schools thanked AmFirst for sponsoring the program. Each Teacher and Staff Member of the Month receives a $100 gift card.
