Orbit Earth Expo launched in North Carolina in 2015. Based in Raleigh, the program delivers content to elementary and middle schools all over the state. Teachers and administrators love the alignment to NC Essential Science Standards and the unforgettable reference for students. These hard to teach concepts in earth and space science are a snap for students recalling information for the EOGs after experiencing Orbit Earth Expo!
Orb, along with his Sun George and his appropriately scaled moon, travel to schools with their teacher friend Tracy Custer. Tracy is a lifelong resident of North Carolina, though she loves to travel. She was a NC Teaching Fellow at Elon College and earned her M-LIS degree from UNC-Greensboro. She has been a classroom teacher, school librarian, and technology guru over the course of her twenty plus years in public education. Sharing the magic of these STEM programs with tens of thousands of students each year is rewarding and fun!
