  • Sarah Bracken

Sarah Bracken is the Education Outreach and Partnerships Manager at Greater Good Science Center. Prior to joining GGSC, Sarah taught in secondary classrooms from Alaska to Virginia and collaborated with educators to co-create communities of practice and other professional learning opportunities focused on belonging and equitable education for students of refugee and immigrant backgrounds. As part of GGSC’s Education team, Sarah is grateful to continue to partner with educators around the world to build kinder, happier schools that center well-being and joyful teaching and learning experiences for adults and children alike.

Sarah spent her childhood living abroad in Zagreb, Hong Kong, Montreal, and Manila. She is a Nationally Board Certified teacher with a B.A. from the University of Virginia and a Master’s in Teaching from The Evergreen State College. She calls western North Carolina home where she tries to get outside with her kids every day to camp, hike, kayak, or run through the sprinkler in the backyard.
