2022 Teacher of the Year – Angela Haynes
Angela Haynes serves as the Blended English III Course Lead and a Blended English teacher for NC Virtual. She joined NC Virtual in 2018 while working as an educator at Jack Britt High School in the Cumberland County Public School system. She graduated from the University of Kansas with a Master of Science in Curriculum and Instruction. She is a National Board Certified Teacher who has over 25 years of experience, both in the North Carolina Public School System and in virtual education.
Two inspiring quotes from Angela:
“My mother always told me to find something I loved doing and if I could get paid to do this, all the better. This is how I feel about teaching.”
“Moving forward, I think if we as an organization continue to remember the heart of our mission, we will continue our success. In the age of standardization, we personalize. This is our heart.”Â
