Holly Winslow

Perquimans County Schools

Holly Winslow graduated from Elizabeth City State University in 2001 with a bachelor’s degree in education.  She also received her National Board Certification in 2005 as an Early Childhood Generalist. She has taught second and third grade for over 18 years as well as afterschool and summer school programs in Perquimans County Schools. Holly was selected as Teacher of the Year at her current school, Perquimans Central, in 2016 as well as at her previous school in 2010.  She was selected as NCCTM Outstanding Elementary Teacher in 2015 and was selected to serve in the Governor’s Teacher Network in 2015.

For several years Holly served as a School Improvement Team representative, grade level chair, curriculum committee lead, part of the district MTSS committee, and facilitated school-wide data analysis meetings.  Currently, Holly is serving as an administrative intern, working closely with her school administrative team as they guide teachers through data analysis and curriculum mapping.

Holly believes being part of the Pirate Leadership Academy (PLA) is an honor.  She is looking forward to delving into the PLA’s coursework and the hands-on experiences that include service leadership projects, class discussions, coaching sessions, and authentic administrative tasks.  Holly wants to use these PLA program experiences to become a well-rounded leader who positively impacts her school community.

One of her favorite quotes is: “Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” Luke 6:38
