Camilla Roberson has been the Special Assistant for the North Carolina Governor’s School for 19 years. For most of this time, she was the only full-time, year-round Governor’s School employee. Through the years, she has processed more than 30,000 student nominations and helped facilitate more than 13,000 student selections. During the budget cuts and resulting tuition requirements, Camilla worked with colleagues to find ways to extend the opportunity to as many students as possible. The Office of the North Carolina Governor’s School is now poised for growth and possibility, due in large part to the industrious and gracious efforts of Camilla Roberson.

For those and many other reasons, the NC Governor’s School Foundation is proud to honor Camilla as a Jim Hart Governor’s School Champion Award winner for 2017.
