PHOTOS: Warren County Schools New Staff and Teachers Tour
About a dozen Warren County Schools teachers and staff members explored the community and culture of Warren County in what has become an annual tradition.
Sponsored by the Heritage Quilters and the Warren Education Fund, the New Staff and Teacher Tour is meant “to highlight Warren County’s cultural, historic, economic, and social landscapes from the perspectives of grassroots community members.” The goal is for those who attend the tour can become familiar with the community the students their students live in and also look to these places as resources for classroom activities or potential field trips.
Led by Heritage Quilters member, Jereann King Johnson, the tour began with a meet and greet and breakfast at 134 on Main and stops at the John Hyman Commemorative Sign; Warren County Courthouse; Aaron Hendrick House; F&M Trailer Park; Cherry Hill; Haliwa-Saponi School and Community; Buck Spring; Warren County Training School/North Warren High School; Seven Springs Farm & Vineyard; and Soul City.
