We enjoyed reading a great article in The Courier-Times in Roxboro about Roxboro Community School (RCS) eighth-grade teachers Gina W. Lunsford, Sara Morrow, and Kara Roberts attending The Canvas Connection program recently at NCCAT.
Roberts said: "The instructor teaching the course (Elizabeth Joyce) was an avid canvas user and she did not teach a boxed course. She took into account what the students needed and geared her instruction to our needs. The hands-on opportunities to work without the demands of the normal day at home and work helped us focus and make excellent use of our time.
