Beth Carter was one of the founding teachers at CFCI, and is teaching kindergarten this year – her 8th at CFCI. She doesn’t usually reveal how many years she has taught elsewhere, but has enjoyed all of them, teaching at the college level, third grade, first grade, and preschool.

Ms. Carter is a National Board Certified Teacher, and has traveled with the N.C. Zoo to Uganda twice teaching environmental education to Ugandan teachers. She also sailed the Inner Passage in Alaska with the RAINIER, a NOAA ship that uses multi-beam sonar to create hydrographic maps.

Ms. Carter has two daughters. The older daughter is a sophomore at N.C. State, and the younger is a junior at Hoggard High School, and may graduate someday.
