Marisa Bernard, an educator at Plantation Elementary School in Lafayette, has been selected from a pool of over 300 applicants to participate in the Library of Congress Teaching with Primary Sources Summer Teacher Institute for the week of June 22-26, 2015.

During the five-day program, Marisa and other participants work with Library education specialists and subject-matter experts to learn effective practices for using primary sources in the classroom, while exploring some of the millions of digitized historical artifacts and documents available on the Library’s website.
