Atlanta math teacher bound for Indonesia
An Atlanta high school math teacher has been picked to represent Georgia when he travels to Indonesia this summer for a professional development exchange program.
Rodney Finkley of Alonzo Crim Open Campus High School in east Atlanta was the only teacher from Georgia out of 84 teachers nationwide selected for the Teachers for Global Classrooms cultural exchange.
The program is sponsored by the U.S. State Department for teachers to learn from their international colleagues and bring back best practices for internationalizing U.S. schools.
