Congratulation Mrs. Sheila Sochovka! Your Trojan Family is very proud of you!

Cumberland County Schools is proud to announce that long-time educator Sheila Sochovka, who is an Exceptional Children’s (EC) teacher at several district schools, was recently named a North Carolina Educator of Excellence by the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction’s Exceptional Children’s Division.
The announcement came during a special dinner at the annual Exceptional Children’s Conference in Greensboro from Nov. 20 – 22. One EC educator from each district was selected to be honored during the annual gathering. Sochovka, who has worked with elementary and secondary EC students across the county for over 15 years, was applauded for “going above and beyond” for her students.

“Ms. Sochovka has a heart for children,” said Dr. Pamela Adams-Watkins, the executive director of CCS’ Exceptional Children’s Services. “She is an advocate for children … She is always thinking of innovative ways in which to engage her students in her social skills lessons from the use of technology to hand-made games. Sheila Sochovka is a valuable asset to Cumberland County Schools and we are fortunate to have her on our team.”

One in three children in the United States is overweight or obese. Childhood obesity puts kids at risk for health problems that were once seen only in adults, like type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease.

The good news is that childhood obesity can be prevented. In honor of National Childhood Obesity Awareness Month, CCS encourages your family to make healthy changes together.

• Get active outside: Walk around the neighborhood, go on a bike ride, or play basketball at the park.
• Limit screen time: Keep screen time (time spent on the computer, watching TV, or playing video games) to 2 hours or less a day.
• Make healthy meals: Buy and serve more vegetables, fruits, and whole-grain foods.

Taking small steps as a family can help your child stay at a healthy weight.
