Billie Ann McBride, an eighth-grade U.S. history teacher at Sycamore Middle School, will participate in three professional development programs this summer.

She was selected to participate in the National Endowment for the Humanities Summer Workshop for Teachers, “Social Movements and Reform in Industrializing America: The Lowell Experience,” July 13-19 at the Lowell National Historical Park in Lowell, Mass.

Participants will explore changes in work, society, culture and the environment between 1820 and 1860 as well as subsequent reform activity related to labor, women’s rights and slavery.

McBride will participate in the White House History Teacher Institute in Washington, D.C., July 22-26. The institute is sponsored by The White House Historical Association.

Through this experience, she will visit historic sites, be introduced to new education resources and technology and given opportunities to learn about White House history from White House historians and former White House staff.

McBride will also attend the Colonial Williamsburg Teacher Institute in Williamsburg, Va. June 22-29.

The institute helps prepare educators to help students meet national and state history standards through hands-on immersion experiences in colonial history.
​
McBride was named the 2018-2019 SMS Teacher of the Year and District-Wide Middle School Teacher of the Year.
