Jackson Cabel and his calculus teacher Myles Aitken at Chapel Hill High School.

WUNC's My Teacher Series is exploring student-teacher relationships across North Carolina and trying to find out what it takes to make a connect in the classroom.

 

Today we meet Jackson Cabel. He's graduating from Chapel Hill High School tomorrow and heading to UNC Chapel Hill in the fall. Jackson sat down and interviewed his calculus teacher Myles Aitken. Mr. Aitken is a Chapel Hill High and UNC alumnus himself. It's the last day of class for both of them today.
