Two history teachers from Mound Fort Junior High School, Denise Lopez and Jessica Jackson, were selected to participate in the Driven 2 Teach program which takes teachers on historical trips between New York City and Philadelphia. The program, started in 2007 by Larry H. Miller, aims to enhance history teaching in Utah schools. Lopez and Jackson believe the hands-on experience will help them engage students in low-income areas. They plan to incorporate primary sources and historical novels into their lessons after learning new teaching strategies on the trip.
