About kishsocialstudies

I have taught at this school for 23 years and I love it here. I can't imagine being anywhere else at the moment. Currently, I teach grade 7-9 Social Studies. History is one of my passions. My favorite topic to teach is World War II. My biggest passion is reading...I always have a book on the go. I like to talk about books, collect books and lend books. I belong to two book clubs. I am the "webmaster" of the KISH website.
