Jeffrey Glendening - A little about me.....
This is my fourth year at JW Seabrook. I feel blessed to have the opportunity to work with you and your kids. JW Seabrook is a little piece of heaven that hidden away. I had no idea where it was when I interviewed for the position. It has been a exceptional enjoyable experience. I have worked in a variety of environments, 4 years as a classroom teacher working with high school students, 17 years in the North Carolina Community College System (Wake Technical Community College and Fayetteville Technical Community College), served as a counselor at Pine Forest High School, South Middle School and finally here. I retired in 2007. I have served in a 50% capacity since that date.
My current work schedule is a full day on Mondays and Thursdays. I work on Tuesday until 11:00 a.m. I can be easily reach through email at "Jeffreyglendening@ccs.k12.nc.us." I am an avid email reader and check my it frequently. You can also reach me at school , 910-323-2930, on the days that I am working here.
