BERLIN â For her 38 years of work in education, Berlin Superintendent of Schools Julie King was recognized with the prestigious 2021 Sylvia Evans Citizenship Award.
The award is given out annually by Coos County Family Health Services to honor the âextraordinary, often unrecognized contributions that women have made to the families of our region.â

As a teacher, a principal, and more recently as superintendent of Berlin Public Schools, Julie has prioritized the needs of our North Country youth and their families; she shows us her commitment to improving outcomes for our most cherished resource â our children â every single day,â said Berlin High Director of Special Services Martha Miller in nominating King.
