Ms. Tyronna Hooker addressed the SWC during the October 2022 meeting speaking on the challenges women face and how such challenges can be faced with a fixed or growth mindset.
Tyronna is Executive Director of Alamance Achieves, a non-profit organization. Alamance Achieves is a community-driven initiative to ensure that every child in Alamance County is educated, equipped, and engaged from cradle to career. Tyronna is also Director of Teaching Fellows at North Carolina Central University. She has a master’s in education from Elon College and was voted N.C. Teacher of the Year 2011-2012.
She reminded members that what they are on the inside is what makes the person on the outside. Her talk was timely, encouraging all to apply themselves in upcoming SWC projects such as the launch of the Historic Clubhouse Preservation Capital Campaign.
