Rush attends C-SPAN conference

Rhonda Rush, a social studies teacher at Homewood High School, was one of 32 educators from across the nation selected to attend C-SPAN Classroom’s 2013 Educators’ Conference in Washington, DC, in July. 

C-SPAN Classroom’s two-day conference helps educators make social studies content come alive in the classroom. The conference brings together high school teachers who specialize in social studies and/or technology and use C-SPAN in their classrooms.

Rush competed with applicants across the country to secure a place at the conference. C-SPAN provided the roundtrip airfare and hotel accommodations for all selected attendees. 

Over the course of the two-day event, participants will learn more about C-SPAN’s Video Library, Congressional Chronicle, and a host of other FREE digital and social media resources that can be implemented in the classroom. Historian and author William Seale will spoke at the conference dinner.
