For over four decades, Mrs. Darlene Graham has worked tirelessly to improve the lives of students at Hallsboro-Artesia. She has made countless sacrifices for the community surrounding her alma mater and has continually served by giving back to the Waccamaw Siouan Tribe. As of yesterday, Mrs. Graham has officially retired from HAES—but we know she will never truly be a stranger in Panther Country. She will continue to share her knowledge and advocate for the acknowledgement and betterment of Native Americans across North Carolina. We love you, Mrs. Darlene. Congratulations on a well-deserved retirement!
