Bank of Stanly Honors 2008-2009 Teacher of the Year
and Outstanding Business

Tuesday, May 12th 2009 - Albemarle, NC - Bank of Stanly honored Stanly County’s 2008-2009 Teacher of the Year Donna Jones recently at the company’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Mrs. Jones teaches Reading and Language Arts at South Stanly Middle School.

“Teachers have a special mission of helping mold and encourage our children to be what they can be, to dream big dreams and realize those dreams,” said Jerry Long, Bank of Stanly’s Board of Directors’ Chair, who recognized Mrs. Jones.

Donna chose teaching as a profession after encouragement from her father when she was in college. From her first classroom experience with a “problem child” and a deaf child, she would realize that these two children would shape the rest of her teaching career. Teaching is in her blood and as she claims “almost to the point of being obsessive.” Her classroom is currently the model of how Middle School English classrooms should look, housing 2,500 to 3,000 books for children to read.

Bank of Stanly also recognized Walter Printing of Albemarle as its 2009 Outstanding Business. “Serving the financial needs of local families and businesses is more than providing checking accounts and making loans… it’s about building relationships. Our Stanly County Outstanding Business honoree, Walter Printing, of Albemarle, is an excellent example of this” said Bill Lawhon, President and CEO of Bank of Stanly.

“Today Walter Printing is using cutting edge technologies for several printing processes. With capabilities of printing one million labels at speeds of up to 600 feet per minute, and a client base that currently spreads across the nation, there is no job too large that Walter Printing cannot handle. As widespread as their client base may be they have a strong dedication to Stanly County and are making a difference in the community by providing good jobs and by helping create community wealth right here at home.”

Bank of Stanly presented Mrs. Donna Jones a monetary gift and a desk clock frame which featured an original piece of art depicting Mrs. Jones’ area of teaching. Walter Printing was presented a grandfather wall clock in appreciation of their contribution to the local economy.
