From Lancers to Leaders: Building School Culture with Longwood Alumni

In the first episode of Longwood GradCast: Beyond the Degree, we invite you to join us as we sit down with two remarkable double alums, Ginny Gills BS’89, MEd’05 (a Reading, Literacy, & Learning alum) and Pamela Stepko BS’07, MS’16 (an Educational Leadership alum). Our host, Dr. Sarah Tanner-Anderson, speaks with these two dedicated educators whose experiences at Longwood helped them to become influential leaders in the field of education.

We kick things off by delving into their personal journeys, tracing their paths from being Longwood students, both undergrad and graduate, to the educational leaders they are today. As Lancers turned leaders, their stories provide a glimpse of the possibilities that await future educators and Longwood students.

Ginny, principal of Cumberland Elementary School in Cumberland County, Virginia, shares how her Longwood experience has left an indelible mark on the school culture she has cultivated within her institution. Discover the significance of hiring Longwood alumni and how it contributes to the remarkable success of a school.

Pamela, a recipient of the prestigious national Virginia Milken Educator of the year Award in 2022, takes us through her teaching journey, highlighting the role Longwood played in her path to excellence. Together, we explore the power of collaboration between Longwood alumni and how it fosters a supportive and successful educational environment.

The conversation broadens to address the current challenges in education, emphasizing why Longwood alumni are uniquely equipped to tackle them head-on. Ginny and Pamela offer invaluable advice for aspiring educators considering Longwood or those venturing into the world of education.

If you would like to build your professional network, Ginny and Pamela would love to connect with you and support your educational aspirations! They invite you to find them on Twitter: @GinnyGills @Pstepko #ccesdukes
