We are out to help change the world! Lindsay Beavers and Jon Parker  joined other business leaders and educators at the annual STEM and Global Studies World Café earlier this month. During the event hosted by Wake Education Partnership, the two were paired with guests from Forestville Road Elementary School and Millbrook High School to brainstorm potential projects to help improve the public-private partnership involving our county schools.
