Dr. Clara Walters, John Crossman on the next Crossman Conversation

WINTER PARK — Clara L. Walters Ed.D who after her 35-year career with Orange County Public Schools, founded an organization specializing in leadership development that improves school grade, climate and culture, will join John Crossman Saturday, Feb. 25 at 1:05 p.m. on The Crossman Conversation.

During her years of service with OCPS Walters achieved several “firsts,” including the first African American female principal of a secondary school in Orange County in the 1980s, for which she received local, state and national recognition as an outstanding school leader.

Upon retirement in 2000, she founded Educational & Leadership Training Incorporation to mentor school principals and has been noted for transforming several academically challenged schools (D or F) into highly rated (B grade) schools after only a few years under her guidance. Dr. Walters published a book entitled, Leadership That Restores Hope in Schools in the African American Community.

Crossman’s passion has been to provide higher-education opportunities through scholarships for hardworking diverse students, especially at HBCUs, and at several colleges and universities in the South.

“Dr. Walters plays a critical role in improving student achievement and preparing them for responsible adulthood and higher education opportunities that they need to succeed, breaking the cycle of poverty,” he said.

The Shepherd Radio is available on three stations, each part of the MARC Radio group. 1270 AM – WIWA in Orlando which covers the entire Central Florida area. In the Ocala/Villages area, The Shepherd is heard on 103.5 FM and 720 AM, while Gainesville listeners can hear the broadcast on 96.3 FM or 1430 AM.
