Kathy Wright, a technology teacher at Eastlake High School, was selected to compete for top honors at the Microsoft Partners in Learning 2012 U.S. Forum this summer in Redmond.

She is one of just 102 innovative educators from around the country who will get a chance to showcase the creative ways they are transforming learning through technology.

Those with the most impressive presentations will represent the U.S. at Microsoft’s global competition in Athens, Greece in November.

Teachers were selected from 26 different states, with nine of the 102 coming from Washington.
