I'm excited for the new school year!  I'm beginning my 12th year of teaching and my classes look awesome.  I have a terrific group of students with whom I'm sharing my classroom and I have the opportunity to teach a variety of 'new' subjects this year:  World Civilization, AP World History, US History, and Political Science.  I hope you find this blog to be helpful and I look forward to our time together.
