| The GTN was recently created to give outstanding NC teachers a statewide platform to share professional development resources and instructional materials. |
May 30, 2014 will go down as one of the most anticipated days for many North Carolina teachers. Teacher-Leaders from every county in the state waited on bated breath to see if they would be admitted to the Governor's Teacher Network. I was one of those teachers.
Would I be granted the opportunity to conduct professional development for teachers around the state? Would I be able to create instructional materials that could benefit a plethora of statewide stakeholders? Would I receive the $10,000 supplement? The answers are yes, yes, and yes!
At 4:13 PM, I received my confirmation email! I am so proud and excited about this honor because it will not just benefit me, but so many other teachers and students.

On June 30th and July 1st, I attended the GTN Conference at the Sheraton Imperial Ballroom in Raleigh.
In the video below, I recount my experience at the GTN conference.
Here are a couple memorable photos from the event:
