About The Teacher
I was born and raised near Perham, Minnesota. I have three brothers, one who is older and the other two are younger than I am. We are all very close in age. I attended Perham School from kindergarten through 12th grade. During this time, I was involved in many activities which included football, baseball, and National Honor Society. I graduated from the University of Mary in 2002 with a degree in Social and Behavioral Science. For the years 2003-2007, I taught social studies in North Dakota. During those years I had the opportunity to teach a wide variety of social studies classes. They included psychology, sociology, law and justice, economics, U.S. history, world history, world geography, government, and junior high social studies classes. I was also involved in developing the school curriculum at Dakota Prairie, starting the geography bee within our school, and leading the senior class trip to the legislature. I also served as junior high and assistant varsity football coach. My wife and I reside in Apple Valley with our dog, Walter. In my free time you might find me in the outdoors. I really enjoy hunting and fishing and spend a lot of my time during the summer and fall pursuing these interests. If I am not in the field, I am probably spending time with my wife, reading, or following athletics.

Mission
The purpose of this course is to explore the progress of America through the advances of its citizens and the contributions of each group to the improvement of the country. By the end of this class, I hope that each student will have a basic understanding of the following standards. 1.Students will investigate social, economic, political structures of people of the United States. 2.Students will examine various revolutions (social, scientific, cultural, and political) and the changes caused by them in the US and the world. 3. Students will understand how events have changed modern day history. "Those who don't learn history are doomed to repeat it" That quote summarizes why I feel that learning history is important. There are many things that we can glean from history. It helps explain who we are, where we have been, and where we are going.
