Each year, Build Mississippi awards a Career & Technical Education Counselor of the Year, and this year's winner is Celena Hembree from Greene County Vocational Center in Leakesville, MS. Help us celebrate her outstanding accomplishment! 👏
"Celena is the perfect example of a counselor invested in not just the futures, but the current lives of her students," says Brent Bean, President of Build Mississippi. "She knows the value of their education regarding their career path and how they can build up their communities, and she helps them prepare for that every step of the way. Her role is critical, not just to these students, but to all of us."
"The moment where a [graduated] student comes back and tells you they love what they do, and you watched them grow that love for that skill here, makes a big difference," says Celena. "To receive this award is extremely humbling; it's an honor to know that what you do matters."
