National Geographic Society awards grant of nearly $50,000 to a team of Albemarle County Public Schools educators

According to an Albemarle County Public Schools news release, “the grant awarded to ACPS will put Charlottesville at the center of understanding how to use geography to solve modern challenges. Project Leader Chris Bunin, who teaches geography at Albemarle High School, said his team will design and develop a curriculum using field experiences and geographic inquiry, matched with geospatial intelligence….Teachers and students from two high schools, Albemarle and Monticello, and the division’s charter middle school will collaborate on the project. Joining Bunin as faculty advisors are Mae Craddock, a library media specialist from the charter school; Adam Seipel, a learning technology integrator from Albemarle; John Skelton, who teaches human geography at Monticello; and Julie Stavitski, the charter middle school’s lead teacher.” To read full description of project go to: https://www.k12albemarle.org/our-departments/communications/news-board/~board/newsroom/post/national-geographic-society-grant-awarded-to-acps
