Studies show that students taught by National
Board Certified Teachers outperform their peers on
achievement tests, have a deeper understanding of
content, and have higher gains in achievement. For
fourteen consecutive years, North Carolina has led the
nation in the number of teachers who have achieved
National Board certification.
National Board Certified Teachers become leaders in
the teaching profession, using what they learned through
the National Board certification process to improve their
classrooms and schools. According to Governor Beverly
Perdue, “National Board Certified Teachers are essential
to helping transform North Carolina’s schools.”
Since 1997, the North Carolina Center for the
Advancement of Teaching has been providing National
Board Support Seminars that have served more than
5,000 candidates. Because many of these teachers have
gone on to become candidate support providers through
NCCAT, the state’s initial investment has been well
leveraged, building a national reputation of dedication to
quality public education for North Carolina.
For the past five years, the Golden LEAF
Foundation has provided major support for NCCAT’s
National Board Support Seminars. “The Golden
LEAF Foundation is please to support NCCAT’s work
to increase the number of National Board Certified
Teachers,” said Golden LEAF Foundation President
Dan Gerlach. “This investment will help make North
Carolina globally competitive by improving teaching
and student learning.”
Doyle Nicholson, a National Board Certified Teacher in
mathematics at Mount Tabor High School, said, “I was so
thankful for the help I received as a candidate at NCCAT
that I wanted to give that help to others. I love working
with adult learners and pushing their thinking to a new
level.” In addition to being a candidate support provider
at NCCAT, Nicholson also serves as a “virtual coach” for
candidates through the Center for Teaching Quality.
Martha Brown, a National Board Certified Teacher
at Cameron Park Elementary School, wanted to give
something back. “As soon as I was certified, I contacted
Mary Kay Cooley at NCCAT,” she said. Cooley, assistant
program director at NCCAT, has overseen NCCAT’s
National Board support program since 2000. “By working

Tony Sapp, who teaches calculus and algebra at Charles D. Owen High School in Buncombe County, achieved National Board certification after
attending an NCCAT National Board Support Seminar. Sapp, a frequent candidate support provider at NCCAT, said, “National Board certification is
a powerful professional development tool. Initially it made my teaching better, but it also opened doors to new leadership roles.”

with other candidate support providers at NCCAT, my
skills have grown significantly and now I lead pre-candidacy
workshops for The Collaborative Project of the
Public School Forum of North Carolina,” Brown said.
In January 2010, NCCAT, the North Carolina
Association of Educators, the Department of Public
Instruction (DPI), and the National Board for Professional
Teaching Standards partnered to sponsor a training session
for National Board Certified Teachers in the western region
of the state for teachers seeking certification.
Ultimately, NCCAT’s commitment to the National
Board certification process is recognized well beyond our
state. In 2000, when Dr. Beverly Melenyzer at California
University of Pennsylvania wanted to create a program
to promote National Board certification in her state, she
reached out to NCCAT. With a grant from State Farm
Insurance, Melenyzer and a colleague came to NCCAT
to train with Mary Kay Cooley. “NCCAT was a strong
mentor,” Melenyzer said. “We would not be where we are
today in Pennsylvania without NCCAT.”
Over the past decade, Melenyzer and Cooley have
The 2004 study titled “Learning from Leadership:
Investigating the Links to Improve Student
Learning” found that principals have a positive
impact on student achievement when they support
learning communities in which teachers share
a common focus on student learning and have
opportunities for professional development.
Through NCCAT’s Principal Scholars Initiative
in partnership with DPI, public school principals
are able to participate in an NCCAT seminar,
enhancing their understanding of NCCAT’s
instructional programming as well as reaping
the benefits of the professional and intellectual
development an NCCAT seminar provides.
Recently, Principal Whitney Bisbing of Moyock
Elementary School in Currituck County joined a
group of teachers at NCCAT’s Ocracoke campus
for the seminar “Women in Aviation: Pioneers of
Courage.” The seminar explored the rich history of women
in flight, the physics of aviation, and the metaphors of the
challenge embodied in flight. “We learned so much about
the women who have influenced the history of aviation in
our country, both past and present heroines,” Bisbing said.
During the week, Bisbing and her fellow educators
performed a pre-flight check with a pilot, learned the
geometry of navigation from a sailor, followed a compass
Working together: Principals and teachers help students soar
course, and met the all-female crew of a Navy MH-60S
Knighthawk helicopter. “We learned science, history,
social studies, math, and language arts all at the same
time,” Bisbing said.
Throughout the seminar, Bisbing kept a detailed blog
that was followed by her elementary school audience. “I
think it is very valuable for my students and teachers to see
me as a teacher and a learner,” Bisbing said.
conducted studies, one on the value of having National
Board Certified Teachers serve as mentors to student
teachers and another on the leadership styles of National
Board Certified Teachers who became principals. “These
principals understand what it takes to be an accomplished
teacher,” Cooley said.
This year, more than 6,000 teachers in North Carolina
are working toward National Board certification. NCCAT’s
National Board Support Seminars and the statewide
network of candidate support providers will help ensure
that our state’s teachers who strive to achieve this hard-won
designation become better educators through the process.
“I have taught for fifteen years,” said Jeannie Ransone,
who teaches health at Sanderson High School. Ransone
came to an NCCAT National Board Support Seminar in
December 2008 and achieved certification in November
2009; she later returned to NCCAT in her new role as a
candidate support provider. “Going through the process of
National Board certification is one of the best things I have
ever done. It has made me a better teacher and surrounded
me with people who are motivated to be the best.”

With generous support from the North Carolina Automobile Deal-ers
Association (NCADA), NCCAT developed the seminar “World
in Motion: Careers and Creativity in the Car Industry.” The seminar
brought together career and technical education, math, science, art,
and history teachers to explore the history of automobile manufac-turing
and design, examine the importance of motor sports to our
region, and learn real-world applications in science, mathematics,
and engineering.
“By covering varied topics within the automobile industry, the
seminar was able to show teachers firsthand how multiple disciplines
support and are needed to grow this industry and thus the economy
of our state,” said Dr. Jonathan Wade, the center fellow who designed
and conducted the seminar. “With this knowledge, they can help their
students connect what they are learning in class to a career path that
excites and motivates them.”
From the intricately programmed and choreographed movements
of robots building cars for BMW to the carefully controlled processes
used by Michelin to make safe tires, the teachers saw how mathemat-ics
and science are harnessed and used by engineers and others.
Teachers also found lessons in business, marketing, leadership,
and teamwork at NASCAR’s Performance Instruction and Training
Facility. “Not everyone in our group was a NASCAR fan, but the
training session opened all our minds to the complexity of the sport
and the automobile industry as a whole,” said Danny Johnson, an
automotive service technology teacher at Northampton County High
School–East. “They shared with us statistics regarding pit stops and
how what happens at stops affects the race outcome. Teamwork was
emphasized. Most of my students are NASCAR fans, and this will
illustrate the importance of teamwork for them.”
At the seminar, Johnson was happily surprised to reunite with two
colleagues who also teach automotive technology—Ricky Lewis of
James B. Dudley High School in Greensboro and
Robert “Tiny” Salley of the Career and Technical
Educational Magnet School of Wilkes County.
The three originally met at NCCAT in 1996 at
the seminar “Electric Vehicles: The Shock Heard
Round the World.”
“I remember that seminar like it was yester-day;
it was very inspiring,” said Johnson, who
now teaches an electric vehicle class. “In fact,
Ricky and I attend an electric vehicle rally that
our students host each year.”
As to the mix of teachers and disciplines
explored at “World in Motion: Careers and
Creativity in the Car Industry,” Johnson said,
“There were many ideas shared. It is always good to get different
perspectives. It is through these types of learning experiences that we
are able to grow as professionals and become better teachers in our
chosen areas.”
“World in Motion” puts learning in high gear
As part of the Pit Crew Challenge, North Carolina teachers
participate in a unique team building program that
combines hands-on, experiential learning with interactive
classroom sessions. Pictured above are three automotive
service technology teachers (left to right): Ricky Lewis
of James B. Dudley High School in Greensboro, Robert
“Tiny” Salley of the Career and Technical Educational
Magnet School in Wilkes County, and Danny Johnson of
Northampton County High School–East in Conway. These
three met in 1996 at NCCAT’s “Electric Vehicles: The Shock
Heard Round the World” seminar and reunited last fall at
NCCAT’s “World in Motion: Careers and Creativity in the
Car Industry” seminar, which was sponsored by NCADA.

By a unanimous vote, Linda S. Suggs of Morrisville
was elected chair of the NCCAT Board of Trustees at
the board’s April 2009 meeting. Grace M. Edwards of
Henrico was elected vice chair. During the October 2009
board meeting, two new appointments to the board were
sworn in: Judge Willis P. Whichard of Chapel Hill and
Barbara Hardy of Kitty Hawk. Both Whichard and Hardy
were each appointed for one four-year term. In addition,
Dr. William Harrison, chairman of the State Board of
Education, became an ex officio member of the NCCAT
Board of Trustees.
Suggs succeeds Dr. Kenneth W. Wells of Manteo as
board chair. Edwards follows Cherri Cheek of Ocean Isle
as vice chair. Both Wells and Cheek rotated off the NCCAT
Board of Trustees on June 30, after eight dynamic years
of service. Both have generously agreed to continue their
support of NCCAT by serving on the Board of Directors
for the Development Foundation of NCCAT Inc.
Suggs brings an opportune skill set to her new position
as chair of the NCCAT Board of Trustees. Her career
in education began as a middle school teacher in Wake
County Public Schools and included service as Section
Chief of school personnel support at the Department of
Public Instruction, associate executive director for the
North Carolina Association of School Administrators, and
legislative director for the North Carolina State Board of
Education. She currently consults for the Bill and Melinda
Gates Foundation. “I am excited and deeply honored
to work with NCCAT’s wonderful Board of Trustees to
support North Carolina teachers,” Suggs said. “Our mission
is vital, and we strive to provide teachers with great experi-ences
as they connect with colleagues and improve their
instructional practice. No other state provides this rich
opportunity for its teachers; I am proud that North Carolina
does, and I am ever grateful to our legislature for its vision
in supporting this wonderful opportunity for our state’s
teachers.”

Throughout American history, events have occured that
left many people wondering what really happened. Perhaps
nowhere is this so starkly apparent than in the myth and
mystique that surround the presidency and assassination of
John F. Kennedy.
NCCAT’s “Camelot: The Myth and Mystique of the
Kennedy Years” seminar began with an informative history
of the Kennedy family and a discussion of the politics of
that time. Melinda Ratchford, associate professor of educa-tion
at Belmont Abbey College, put history in the teachers’
hands by dividing them into small groups and giving each
group one of the many conspiracy theories surrounding the
assassination of President Kennedy to defend. Guided by
Ratchford, the teachers conducted research on their theories
using primary sources, and then each group presented its
rationale as to why its theory was feasible.
Teachers concluded the seminar with more than new-found
knowledge about the Kennedy era. They were filled
with renewed enthusiasm for active learning and active
teaching. “This seminar has taught me new ways to
approach history and keep my students engaged,” said
Jameka Satterwhite, who teaches at Southern Middle
School in Person County. Christy Kennedy, who teaches at
Elizabeth Elementary School in Cleveland County, added,
“I am on fire with ideas for my classroom.”

The Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation (ZSR) is providing
critical support for NCCAT’s Beginning Teachers Model,
a comprehensive professional development program that
improves instructional methods
and maximizes the effectiveness
of North Carolina’s talented new
teachers.
With a two-year grant of
$125,000 per year, ZSR is sup-porting
NCCAT Connections, a
yearlong induction program for
teachers in their first year in the
classroom. In the first year of
the grant, NCCAT Connections
is working with novice teachers in Bertie, Hertford, and
Warren counties. Also, a one-year grant of $30,000 is
allowing teachers from North Carolina’s most economi-cally
distressed counties to participate in “Connect to Your
Future: Celebrating Success in the Classroom,” a five-day
residential seminar for teachers in their second or third
year of teaching. Both programs help new teachers develop
strong foundations in classroom management and instruc-tional
practices while building a network of peer support.
A key component of the NCCAT Connections program is
the journey to NCCAT’s Cullowhee campus where begin-ning
teachers grapple with the difficult challenge of meeting
the instructional needs of children living in poverty.
Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation grants
$280,000 to NCCAT
“We have benefited so much from our time here at
NCCAT,” said Tana Sisler, a fourth-grade teacher at Ahoskie
Elementary School. Amanda André, who teaches language
arts at Hertford County Middle School, agreed. “Not only
will we benefit from this experience, but our students will
reap the rewards, too,” she said.
Betty Pugh, executive director of Human Resources
Services for the Hertford County Public Schools, said, “The
NCCAT Connections program provides strong support for
these beginning teachers and gives them instructional strate-gies
they can implement in the classroom.”

at 800-922-0482 or email registrar@nccat.org.
Support for the Development Foundation of NCCAT Inc. remains vigorous
Through these challenging economic times, NCCAT—and
thus North Carolina’s teachers and students—are benefiting
from the ongoing support of corporations, foundations, and
businesses. Gifts and grants received thus far in fiscal year
2009–2010 have bolstered NCCAT’s ability to continue
successful programs for beginning teachers, advance new
educational seminars, and enable more teachers to take
advantage of NCCAT’s professional development opportu-nities
than would be otherwise possible.
Many of this year’s awards are investments in helping
NCCAT move forward with its “Teaching Students of the
21st Century Initiative” by supporting seminars that focus
on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics
(STEM). The Dominion Foundation gave $6,400 through
its 2009 Dominion Educational Partnership Grant for
seminars dealing with environmental education. Piedmont
Natural Gas Foundation also encouraged teacher develop-ment
in STEM subjects with a $10,000 gift for seminar
support. And the Charles M. and Mary D. Grant Foundation
supported teacher development in STEM subjects with a
$30,000 grant.
The Belk Foundation fully funded an NCCAT Honored
Educator Scholarship at $25,000. This scholarship covers
all costs for a teacher to attend an NCCAT seminar each
year, allowing NCCAT to expand its reach. Funds have
also been provided by the Duke Energy Foundation, the
Goodnight Educational Foundation, and the Golden LEAF
Foundation.
In addition to these grants and gifts, the Development
Foundation of NCCAT continues to benefit from the ongoing
support from a host of businesses, philanthropists, and
interested organizations for its instructional programming.
As budgets tighten, NCCAT recognizes the high value
that individual donors and organizations place on the
professional development programming NCCAT provides
for North Carolina’s public school teachers.
NCCAT’s seminars and programs
for beginning teachers are designed
to reinforce essential skills for good
teaching, strengthen instructional
practices in the classroom, and
build professional networks.

Led by Executive Director Dr. Mary McDuffie, a
contingent of educational leaders representing NCCAT met
with North Carolina’s federal legislators in Washington,
D.C., in October 2009. McDuffie was joined in the effort
by Linda Suggs, chair of the NCCAT Board of Trustees,
and Richard Schwartz, president of the Development
Foundation of NCCAT Inc.
The group met with U.S. Senator Kay Hagan and
U.S. Representatives G.K. Butterfield, Larry Kissell,
Mike McIntyre, David Price, and Heath Shuler. The
lawmakers were briefed on two of NCCAT’s quintessential
instructional programs: NCCAT’s Beginning Teachers
Model, which focuses on improving instructional
methods and maximizing effectiveness of new teachers;
and NCCAT’s “Teaching Students of the 21st Century
Initiative,” which ensures that North Carolina teachers have
the global knowledge and essential skills to prepare today’s
students for the world they will enter upon graduation.
During the meeting with Hagan, the group discussed
financial literacy education, a cause she championed in
North Carolina and now has taken nationwide with her
proposal of the Financial Literacy for Students Act of 2009.
After meeting with the NCCAT contingent, Sen. Hagan
said, “One of the most important ways to ensure student
success is to make sure that our teachers have the necessary

A contingent of educational leaders representing the North Carolina
Center for the Advancement of Teaching meet with U.S. Rep. Mike
McIntyre of the 7th District to discuss the importance of investing in
and supporting North Carolina’s public schools. Pictured here (left to

NCCAT Inc.; Linda Suggs, chair of the NCCAT Board of Trustees; Rep.
McIntyre; and Dr. Mary McDuffie, executive director of NCCAT.
Focusing on financial literacy
As personal financial literacy became a requirement in
North Carolina’s curriculum, NCCAT designed a seminar
to help teachers create stimulating lessons that bring this
important subject to life for students.
The NCCAT seminar “Dollars and Sense: Building
Financial Literacy,” supported by a grant from the North
Carolina Department of Public Instruction (DPI),
allowed teachers to explore ways to integrate financial
literacy initiatives into their curriculums. Teachers
participated in various sessions on financial planning,
assessing and dealing with debt, and understanding
investment choices. They also learned where they could
find free resources within their own communities to
support classroom activities.
“Teachers actively developed strategies to help students
deal with the real economic world and make sound, ethical
financial decisions so they don’t become overwhelmed
after graduation,” reported Winston Sharp, vice president
of default servicing, loss mitigation, and collections at
Wells Fargo in Wisconsin.
“Teachers have the power to
influence the decisions that will
determine our future financial
behavior as a nation,” he said.
Ami Parker, a counselor at
Highland School of Technology
in Gaston County, said, “We
learned commonsense solutions to
financial planning problems. Everything that was presented
gave me new ideas to teach students about financial literacy.”
As students are bombarded with credit card offers before
they even graduate from high school, financial literacy has
become essential knowledge for achieving a successful,
productive life. So essential, in fact, that U.S. Sen. Kay
Hagan recently introduced a bill to provide all states with
incentives to teach financial literacy in public schools.
“This education will give our students the tools to make
sound financial decisions when applying for credit cards,
securing student loans, taking out a mortgage, or managing a
budget,” Sen. Hagan said.

“Whatever subject one is studying, capturing the
essence of that experience through both visual arts and
writing engages both sides of the brain and strengthens
learning and retention for students,” said Center
Fellow Jane Dalton, who developed the seminar,
“Exploring the Landscape Through Art and Writing.”
The seminar took a group of North Carolina public
school teachers and placed them in nature. There,
they learned botany and natural history, as well as
strategies for engaging students’ interest in the world
around them. They reinforced what they were learning
through journaling, visual arts, poetry, and prose.
The successful results of this approach motivated
Autumn Crisp, who teaches English at Northern
Nash High School in Nash County, to enhance her
curriculum. “In conjunction with the legendary and
fictional accounts of journeys that I traditionally cover,
I decided to include A Haiku Journey: Basho’s Narrow
Road to a Far Province,” Crisp said. Basho lived in
the seventeenth century and is known as the Japanese
master of haiku. His journal chronicles his five-month
walk through the remote northeastern provinces of Japan.
“I thought about Basho’s writing in his travel diary and
knew this would provide a wonderful opportunity for my students
to incorporate nature writing,” Crisp said.
Crisp attended the NCCAT seminar as the Mabel Roberson
McIntyre Honored Educator Scholar. The scholarship honors Mabel
Roberson McIntyre, a lifelong educator from Nash County.
“In cultures worldwide, the natural world is a source of
inspiration for art, poetry, and writing,” Dalton said. “Finding the
intersections in our curriculum is as natural and easy as stepping out
of the classroom and into nature.”

A fundraising event hosted by Diamonds Direct
Crabtree for the Development Foundation of
NCCAT Inc. was a great success. More than one
hundred people attended, with profits from the
evening going to support NCCAT programming.
Held on November 5, 2009 in Raleigh, the event’s
highlight was a champagne diamond drop in which
guests purchased glasses of champagne with the
hope of finding a one-carat diamond at the bottom of
their glass. A wide range of exclusive gifts, including
jewelry from renowned designers, was also available
to guests at very special pricing.

NCCAT’s instructional programming for teachers has a positive
and lasting impact on North Carolina classrooms, according to a
recent survey of NCCAT alumni conducted by the Program
Evaluation and Research Committee of NCCAT.
With an impressive response rate, this data-driven survey
reported the following results:
• Teachers had a recharged interest in teaching;
• Teachers were more reflective of their teaching practices;
• Teachers more frequently encouraged students to take an
active role in their own learning;
• Teachers had more creative ideas for the classroom;
• Teachers had a more positive attitude toward teaching as
a profession; and
• Teachers more readily shared their expertise with other teachers.
NCCAT’s instructional programming is designed to give
teachers the support and resources they need to be highly effective
and enhance student achievement.
