Each June, the Transylvania County Board of Education recognizes the employees of Transylvania County Schools who have retired or will be retiring during the current school year.  Some of the retirees being recognized have spent their entire careers with the Transylvania County Schools, and some have worked in other school districts in addition to Transylvania.  The 16 individuals being honored tonight represent a combined total of 337 years in public education.  The board would like to offer its commendations and congratulations to the individuals named below in gratitude for their years of dedicated service to public education and the students of Transylvania County Schools.
