Hello, I am Ms. Sale and I am the school social worker at W.G. Pearson. As a school social worker, I serve as a link between school, home, and community, and address any needs that affect student achievement. I graduated from UNC with a degree in sociology and a Masters in Social Work. Prior to working in schools, I worked in family homelessness and community mental health. I love working in the schools and being able to see and talk with students each day. Even on the hardest days, they always bring a laugh and a smile!

Hello, I am Mrs. Herbin, the School Psychologist at W.G. Pearson. I completed my undergraduate studies at  UNC-Chapel Hill (Go Heels!) and attended FMU in SC for my graduate degree. My passion is supporting scholars academically, behaviorally and emotionally. My main focus is to assist parents, caregivers, and families in understanding their value in education. I frequently collaborate with classroom teachers and other staff (EC, student support, curriculum) to support students' needs. I believe "Never be limited by other people's limited imaginations - Dr. Mae Jemison

Hello, I am Mr. Newton and I am an NCCU Eagle Alum. I have been in the classroom a total of 1 year. I am the Restorative Practices Coordinator, and I have been enjoying the experience. There are new challenges each day, but the reward is keeping kids on track and headed toward a higher grade level and increased learning.

Hello! My name is Amonie Moore. Throughout my career, I have had the joy of being able to create and foster relationships with people all over the Durham area while being able to cultivate and support them in their interests. I've been a part of the Durham Public Schools in a variety of different roles since starting with them in 2017. I also grew up attending Durham Public Schools, growing up in Durham. As I continue to learn and grow through my work experiences, I have had the opportunity to engage and incorporate my skills in community building, networking, and outdoor learning. I enjoy gardening, kids, and summer fun!

I am born and raised here in Durham, NC. W.G. Pearson is in the neighborhood that I grew up in. I am a Durham Public Schools product, having attended Lakewood & Fayetteville St. Elementary Schools, Shepard Jr. High School (now Middle School), Hillside High, and onward to North Carolina Central University. I am a professional DJ by trade with over 35 years of experience. I have been all over the world, and worked as a touring DJ with a plethora of artists, such as New Edition, PINK, Boys II Men, and FANTASIA, just to name a few. I got into the field of education in 2002, starting as a substitute teacher with DPS. I came to WG in the 2016-17 school year. I love working with the families of WG Pearson and connecting the community with our school. 

I am the EC Facilitator at WG Pearson.  Facilitators work collaboratively with teachers, school psychologists, parents, related services personnel, and other school staff.  I am a graduated from North Carolina A&T State University (Aggie Pride) with a bacholers in psychology, a Masters in Adult Education, a Special Education Teacher Certification and I have an Ed.

Hello!

My name is Ms. Conklin and I am the WG Pearson K-5 Speech and Language Pathologist. This will be my 3rd year working with the Tiger Family at WG Pearson. I graduated from Penn State University with a bachelor's degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders. I went to grad school at Murray State University to obtain my master’s degree in Speech and Language Pathology. Outside of school I love to travel, run, and try new recipes!

My name is Mrs. Jones. I go by "Ms. Teresa" at W.G. Pearson since there are at least 3 "Ms. Jones" in the building! I am originally from the tiny state of Rhode Island, located east of Connecticut and south of Massachusetts. I went to Brown University and after I graduated in 2000, I moved to NC to teach 7th grade science through Teach For America, but I found my career in occupational therapy. So, I got my master's degree at UNC-CH and have continued to work in schools! I have worked for Durham Public Schools since 2010 and at W.G. Pearson for over 8 of those years. I have a passion for education and empowering students! I LOVE my job because I get to provide students with the tools they need and help them develop the skills they need to become whoever they choose to be. Every single person/student/child is able to learn, even if it might be different than how others learn. Occupational therapists find ways to facilitate student participation in any school activity!

I am a speech/language pathologist serving the preschoolers at WG Pearson! I received my undergraduate degree from UNC-Chapel Hill in Education: Child Developmental and Family Studies (Birth-Kindergarten). I received my graduate degree from UNC-Chapel Hill in Speech Language Pathology. Outside of school, I love spending time with my family and friends. I like exploring new places and trying different restaurants! I also enjoy attending and volunteering at my church. 

Greetings,  I am Angela Tucker-Young the AIG teacher at WG Pearson Elementary. This is my 22nd year teaching (10 of those in

AIG),   Previously, I worked at another district in New York PCSD school for 12 years!  My family is my life. I am married with 3 daughters, 1

son and a granddaughter who I truly adore. I have a genuine  love for kids and their success in life! I attended Suny New Paltz College and

Mercy college for my Masters in education. I also attended North Carolina Central University where I received my (AIG) gifted education

certification.  My love and passion to create is one of the reasons that spiked my interest to work with students who have that creative mind

that some may not understand. I love to plan events, solve logic problems and travel.  I also love math that involve real life lessons. If I had  

not become a teacher, I would have pursued a degree in fashion design. I secretly love singing and have always wanted to be a performing

artist. I love to cook, especially brunch, Caribbean, seafood and soul food.
