Every student has a story, and every story deserves a future.
Kari Babson
2025-2026 Brunswick County Schools Teacher of the Year
Hello! I am Kari Babson. This will be my 13th year in public schools. I have taught Business & Marketing courses in Utah, Virginia, and North Carolina.
I currently serve as the Career Development and Special Populations Coordinator at West. The Career Development Coordinator connects students, teachers, and the community to real-world opportunities. Through career planning, pathway guidance, work-based learning, and partnerships with local businesses, the CDC helps students explore careers, build essential skills, and prepare for life after graduation.
When I’m not teaching, you can find me kayaking, walking, shopping, or hanging out with my family! My husband and I have four children and an aussiedoodle named Cooper.
