197 Teachers Surrounding Phil and Amy Mickelson

Betty Jo Moore, Truman Bell, Kathleen Crook, Brittney Bray

Brittney Bray, who teaches at Walkertown Elementary; Betty Jo Moore, who teaches at Wiley Middle; and Kathleen Crook, who teaches at Morgan Elementary, spent time this summer with golfer Phil Mickelson and his wife, Amy, at the 2012 Mickelson ExxonMobil Teachers Academy.

They also spent time with Truman Bell, ExxonMobil’s senior program manager for education and diversity. The academy was held at Liberty Science Center in Jersey City, N.J., from July 22 to 27. The goal of the academy was to help teachers engage students in math and science at an early age in hopes of retaining their interest in these subjects through college and into their careers.
