We honor one of our retired teachers, who passed away in
April, 2014.
Major Geer, Sr.
was a founding teacher of the UNC Hospital School and taught for 33 years in
the Chapel Hill Carrboro School System. In
his memory, the hospital school faculty, including some of those who have
retired, purchased a plaque with his name, which is permanently displayed in
the courtyard of the NC Cancer Hospital. Major touched the lives of many
students, and their families, who struggled with cancer and other illnesses.
