Weldon City Schools Superintendent Announces Retirement
WELDON, NC 26 MAY 2023- Weldon City Schools Superintendent Dr. Dannie Williams will leave the school system effective May 31, 2023. Dr. Williams will return to his home in central North Carolina to be with his family.
“I have enjoyed my time in Weldon, and I will miss the students, families, and staff there,” offered Dr. Williams. “We accomplished so much in such a small amount of time, and I can take solace knowing that the school system is in a place to build on the success of this past year,” he added. “I’m blessed to have had the opportunity to serve as Superintendent in Weldon, and this has been a great capstone to my career in public education,” Dr. Williams concluded.
Superintendent Williams began the school year with the school system deemed in low-performing status by the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction. By mid-year, that status was removed from the school system due to the majority of the schools within the system no longer deemed low-performing (on an individual school basis). Dr. Williams' first year as Superintendent was highlighted by the securing of funds from the state to build a new combined middle and high school.

Weldon City Schools Teacher Recognized For Excellence
The North Carolina Business Committee for Education has taken the opportunity to highlight a certain field that is very important to North Carolina, by giving away two awards specifically for educators in agriculture. Agriculture has long been a major contributor to NC's economy, and Smithfield Foods understands how important it is to support educators in this field. Educators are a direct link to the future workforce, and the only way to ensure students are prepared for the jobs of tomorrow is to equip their teachers with everything they need to succeed. This year, one of the teachers chosen to receive the Governor's Education Discovery is from Weldon City Schools- Ms. Anna Bello. Congratulations!
