East Forsyth Middle Teacher Heading to California for Camp that Promotes Sustainability and Smart Energy


This summer, Corie Maffett, who teaches at East Forsyth Middle School, will be spending a week with 70 other educators from around the world at the Honeywell Green Boot Camp.

The camp is designed to help middle school teachers create an atmosphere in their classrooms where ideas about sustainability and smart energy use can thrive.

“I am humbled to have been selected to attend Honeywell's Green Boot Camp,” Maffett said. “I am anxious to meet other teachers from the United States and abroad that share my interest in teaching sustainability and environmental consciousness to middle school students. I also look forward to sharing what I learn at Green Boot Camp with my students as they are the future stewards of the environment!”

Maffett will join teachers from 13 countries and 31 other states at the five-day camp being held from June 22 through June 27. More than 450 teachers applied to attend the camp in San Diego, Calif. Honeywell picks up the cost of the camp and pays for transportation.
