As part of We Teach for NC Spring Break, a group of students visited three eastern North Carolina counties – Edgecombe, Senior and Wayne – on a three-day cultural immersion trip.
“Our goal of the trip is to show that education is valued and there are fantastic things happening in those counties, even though the data may not reflect that,” NC State Teaching Fellows Director Crystal Espey said.
Over the three days, the students were able to talk to many school leaders including Valerie Bridges ’02MSA, ’10EDD, the 2022 A. Craig Phillips N.C. Superintendent of the Year and 2019 North Carolina Principal of the Year Matthew Bristol-Smith ’14MSA to learn about different experiences, innovative and cutting edge things that rural districts are doing to support their students.
Eduardo graduated with a bachelor’s degree in elementary education. He chose elementary education because of the positive impact that education has had on his own life and how he seen it change lives. He wants to offer that same experience for kids that may have a similar upbringing as he did in this country while being a role model who may also look like them.
After graduation, he plans to work in a K-5 classroom and work with kids in all subject areas.
“I want to offer a welcoming environment and culturally responsive classroom where every single one of my students will feel as though they can and will do their best learning.”
