Cory Stirewalt Named Kannapolis City Schools' Outstanding Teacher of the Month



Kannapolis City Schools recognized Cory Stirewalt for his excellence in the classroom by presenting him with the Hilbish Ford Outstanding Teacher of the Month Award for March 2016.  Cory is an exceptional AP and Honors Social Studies teacher at A.L. Brown High School. Although his classes are rigorous and challenging, he is a well-loved teacher whose students excel academically and leave the classroom prepared for college and the future.

When asked why they are nominating Cory for the Hilbish Ford Outstanding Teacher of the Month Award, one parent praised him for his excellent teaching instruction, as well as how he approaches his job as a teacher and leads his students by example. The parent said he recently asked his child a couple political questions and was pleased to hear very thoughtful and intelligent responses, rather than receiving the usual one word answers. This was a result of time spent in Cory’s class last semester. Parents also commended Cory for his presentation skills during open house and the time he took at the beginning of the semester to provide information about what to expect in the class and to explain his educational philosophy.

We are extremely proud that Cory is part of our Kannapolis City Schools’ family, and we are and delighted to present him with the Hilbish Ford Teacher of the Month Award for March 2016. Congratulations!
