Join Mary Robb, social studies teacher from AHS, for a discussion on news sources, media bias, and how to make informed decisions.

There are four elections coming up in 2024. Are you prepared and informed? With so many ways to get the news, are you able to tell fact from fiction?

Join Mary Robb for a presentation sharing practical tips on how to identify bias, spot misinformation, and make your own decisions to figure out the truth. 

Mary Robb is a social studies teacher at Andover High School and has taught a popular civics media literacy class for over 20 years.

This program is sponsored by The League of Women Voters of Andover/North Andover, a nonpartisan political organization that encourages informed and active participation in government, works to increase understanding of major public policy issues, and influences public policy through education and advocacy.

This program will be recorded and broadcast by AndoverTV. 

Registration is appreciated.
