Senior Day: Be the Difference
This day is for high school seniors interested in learning about teaching as a profession and transitioning to college. Visiting students will meet during lunch with teacher education students, hear a motivational message by Jessica Garner (the NC Teacher of the Year), attend special interest sessions, and enjoy a closing session with our Master Teacher in Residence. The day will conclude with a campus tour hosted by UNCG Spartan Guides.
