About
SparkNC is driven by the collaborative efforts of the SparkNC Team, SparkLab Leaders, our Board of Directors, our Business Advisory Council, and a dedicated network of engaged district, industry and education partners. Together, these groups guide and shape SparkNC’s mission-driven work.
The SparkNC Team is passionate about reshaping education, especially for those who feel disconnected from traditional approaches to learning. With a strong commitment to education, we believe in the power of innovative educators to create meaningful, personalized learning experiences for every learner.
The heartbeat of SparkNC is our SparkLab Leaders. These innovative educators advise and support students as they navigate learning experiences and opportunities offered through SparkNC’s interdistrict model.
SparkLab Leaders facilitate in-person learning in their SparkLabs and they partner with other SparkLab Leaders and industry experts to deliver blended and remote learning experiences to students across the SparkNC interdistrict network.
I love seeing students find their passion and get excited about their future.
