RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) - A Raleigh high school teacher is the focus of a new documentary film that its creators hope will challenge the Hollywood image of veteran teachers as hacks.
The News & Observer of Raleigh reports (https://bit.ly/2mapu0c) “Teacher of the Year” will premiere Thursday at the Teachers, Teaching and Media Conference at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem.
The documentary follows Angie Sciolo during the 2013-14 school year as she teaches social studies at Leesville Road High School, leads a teacher advocacy group and protests at “Moral Monday” rallies.
