On Tuesday, June 29th, teachers representing districts across South Carolina will board the USS Yorktown to participate in Patriots Point’s 9th Teacher Re-Certification Conference. The two-day conference will include workshops aboard the warship and tours of the Medal of Honor Museum and historic Charleston.
“We are looking forward to a few days of fellowship with great teachers from across the state,” said Patriots Point Education Director Keith Grybowski. “Our goal is to inspire them with new ideas and stories from our country’s greatest heroes – our veterans. It’s been such a unique and challenging year for everyone in education, this conference will be more valuable to educators than ever before.”
