KCS shared, "Milton Matheny is an outstanding teacher and coach at Kannapolis Middle School. He is also an A.L. Brown graduate and a wonderful part of KCS. Mr. Matheny’s amazing influence can be felt not only at KMS but also in the community. The parent that nominated Mr. Matheny called him a great role model and an inspiration to his students. The parent said Mr. Matheny always has a positive attitude and encourages his students to persevere—even when the material is challenging. She also said Mr. Matheny inspires his students outside of the classroom. Her son is on the KMS Cross Country Team, which Mr. Matheny coaches. She said Mr. Matheny has motivated her son to become a better student and a better runner. Even more importantly, she said, he has given her son the motivation to become a better person.
This is the kind of extraordinary influence that makes public education special. We’re proud that Milton Matheny is part of our KCS family, and we’re delighted that Tim Vaughn of Hilbish Ford has honored his excellence with the Hilbish Award for September. Congratulations!"
