This session is part of the series: A More United America: Teaching Democratic Principles and Protected Freedoms.

After teaching Psychology and Political Science at multiple levels for more than 16 years, Trish Everett proudly considers herself a "professional nerd." She loves getting to know her students as humans, watching them form their own opinions. Her work as an AP Reader, a Madison Fellow (FL'12), a mentor in the James Madison Legacy Project, plus a member of the Teacher Advisory Board for the National Constitution Center and the National Advisory Council for the Center for Civic Education is immensely satisfying, and frequently gives her opportunities to collaborate with brilliant educators. She enjoys traveling and attending professional development, and was named a 2021 Teacher of the Year by the American Lawyers Alliance. She lives in Florida with her very patient husband.

Dr. Kerry Sautner, Ed.D., is the chief learning officer at the National Constitution Center.

Through various platforms, Sautner drives the development and distribution of programs and online offerings that make the Center the nation’s leading constitutional education resource. Sautner also leads the development of interactive programs for students, teachers, and the public; theatrical productions; educational videos; and standards-based classroom materials available on-site and online.
