14 Louisiana State Teacher of The Year

The Conference Room welcomes Nathalie Roy. She teaches Roman technology, classical mythology, and Latin at Glasgow Middle School in East Baton Rouge Parish. Her classes feature interactive lessons about the ancient Romans and Greeks infused with STEM, a unique curricular idea that has afforded her many grant opportunities. Roy is a graduate of public school in Avoyelles Parish where both her parents were
teachers. Roy studied classical archaeology at the American Academy in Rome
(as a Fulbright Scholar) and at the American School of Classical Studies at
Athens. A National Board Certified Teacher, Roy has published articles on Roman
technology with Cambridge University Press and the American Classical League,
with whom she has partnered during the pandemic to offer free, live-stream,
hands-on lessons on Roman technology.
