Cherokee Preservation Foundation director resigns
Annette Saunooke Clapsaddle, executive director of the Cherokee Preservation Foundation, submitted her resignation to the board and staff effective July 6.
An enrolled member of the EBCI, Clapsaddle will return to the classroom as a teacher at Swain County High School and continue her creative writing.
“Annette brought her intelligence and skill set to the position and served the CPF well. We are sad she is leaving but happy she is going back to teaching and inspiring our young people,” said Luke D. Hyde, chairman of the CPF’s board.
Hyde will lead a transition committee to begin a national search for a new executive director.
