My Students

Every year I teach 120+ high school students ranging from 9th grade thru 12th grade. Most of my students are in the 11th and 12th grade. I teach United States history, psychology, and sociology.

My students are hard working, passionate, and well-rounded.

They look forward to coming to school and learning the content. They make performing my duties easier and enjoyable. I have taught over 500 students thus far in my career and each one of them are special in their own way.

My Project

After teaching world history for four years, I began to teach United States history this year. The vast majority of my classroom posters are most relevant to world history. Knowing that my classroom was going to be painted at some point of the year, I chose not worry about securing new United States history posters as I would have to take them all back down.

With the room painted, the year rounding down, and in preparation of next school year, I would like to secure new posters that are United States history related.

The items I am requesting will help spruce up my room, give my students visual representation of the content, and provide motivation for years to come.
