Terry Howerton

Biotechnology Instructor, Atkins Academic & Technology High School

Terry teaches Biotechnology classes at Atkins Academic & Technology High School in Winston-Salem.  He has been teaching for 30 years and still enjoys it – even after the Covid pandemic.  His freshman class is a hands-on class that teaches lab skills while his upper-level class provides students the opportunity to experience several molecular lab techniques.  His goal is to prepare students to be scientists in biotechnology and regenerative medicine and to guide them into programs for further training.
