Ms. Canipe teaches Advanced Placement (AP) human geography and World History I honors, as well as medical law and ethics for Cosby High’s Health Science Specialty Center.
She has been teaching with Chesterfield County Schools since 1992, and her career has spanned 39 years. As part of the award for being selected as a teacher fellow, Canipe will attend the AGS Fall Symposium, Geography 2050: Envisioning a Sustainable Planet, Nov. 17-18 at Columbia University in New York City.
