Bridget Cole, a physical science teacher at Stewart’s Creek Middle School, has been named to the Cumberland River Compact’s new cohort of teacher fellows. Over the next year, she will work with educators from across Tennessee to advance water education and career awareness in classrooms and implement innovative, water-focused projects at Stewart’s Creek Middle School.
“I want students to learn and understand the importance of water in their lives,” Cole said. “The purpose is to bring awareness to water - to make our students interested and aware of careers that involve water.”
