This month, Aaron welcomes Cori Greer-Banks, who heads up Carolina Public Humanities’ Carolina K-12 initiative, providing resources to teachers across the state. Summer is her busy time as teachers use the season for professional development, and she’s just returned from two big trips – one to Asheville and another to Africa – both with a team of North Carolina teachers, giving them the opportunity to explore new perspectives to bring into their future classrooms.
