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 Laura Dragonetti. Laura is originally from Connecticut, but now lives in the Sandhills region of North Carolina. After earning a bachelor’s degree in 2012, she spent 10 years working in the field of education before earning a Master’s in Elementary Education in 2022. She has taught every age from preschool through college, and a multitude of different subjects. Laura loves learning and is excited to bring her enthusiasm to schools throughout North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia.
