Each month, the Town of Zebulon Board of Commissioners recognizes an outstanding Wake County student and teacher who exemplify excellence in their school community.
This month, the board is proud to honor Susan Lin of East Wake Magnet High School. Lin is an exceptional student whose achievements extend beyond the classroom. She is ranked seventh in her senior class while taking mostly CCP courses. Her willingness to support her fellow students, along with her kindness and drive for success, makes her a strong role model for her peers.
The board also recognizes Mrs. Maris Gamzon, East Wake Magnet High School’s Teacher of the Year. Gamzon has devoted her career to serving children with disabilities across all grade levels in public school settings. She holds degrees from the State University of New York at Albany, New York University and Long Island University. With more than 20 years of experience in teaching and educational leadership, as well as extensive training in evidence-based practices such as Orton-Gillingham and TEACCH, she continues to make a meaningful impact on students and their families.
In other business, the Board of Commissioners appointed Kyle Adams to fill a vacant seat on the board. Adams was appointed and sworn in during Monday night’s board meeting.
Congratulations to Susan Lin and Maris Gamzon, and welcome Commissioner Adams. Thank you for your dedication to excellence in the Zebulon community.
