York County teachers bring history to life with ‘Bobblehead George’

From south-central Pennsylvania to all around the country, America’s history is rich.

A trio of York County teachers are doing their part to bring it to life.

“You need to learn the history not just that you want to learn, but the history you need to learn,” said David Raymond, an eighth-grade history teacher at Northeastern Middle School in East Manchester Township.

When Covid hit in 2020, Raymond along with fellow Northeastern Middle School history teacher, Eric Gimbi, and science teacher, Michael Graham, started traveling to historic landmarks like Gettysburg, filming virtual field trips for their students.
