We are now half way through the semester, the year's first report cards are coming out. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me through this page or at the number below. Our goal is to help your student be successful. Civics is one of the courses students must pass in order to graduate from high school in N.C. This means at the end of the semester they must make at least a level 3 or 4 on the state EOC. In the past years students in my classes have achieved very high levels of success. Through this web page I will try to help students and parents stay up to date and be informed on what we are doing in our classes. If there are any questions you can always contact me through this page. If there are any problems you would like to discuss you can always reach me at school 704-279-5232 EXT.334. Below you will find the chapters we are currently studying and topics covered. Also I have posted extra credit projects students can do at any time and are free to do as many as they like. I am looking forward to a great next half of the semester!
