¼ª²ÊÍøÍøÕ¾'s  explores student-teacher relationships across North Carolina and tries to find out what it takes to make a connect in the classroom.

Alexandra Brock is a senior at Durham School for the Arts and is on the board of her school’s prom committee. We meet her at one of Durham’s local coffee shops with her media and design teacher Ms. Santibanez, who also heads the prom committee. They sit for coffee and begin to talk about what brought them together in the school and how their relationship flourished.

The My Teacher Series is produced  by  and made possible in part by a grant from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
