Social Studies Courses with Mr. Allen
VisionMy vision for teaching begins with students starting to seek and find their full potential. Through questioning, peer-guidance, self-reflection, and continued discovery they understand themselves, each other, the world, and their connections.

MissionMy mission for teaching is for students to become self aware of themselves and the world around them. They must learn to ask the right questions and learn how to search for these answers. I want them to understand the past and connect it to the future in a thoughtful and intelligent way. "Why do things happen as they do? Why do we celebrate this occasion? Why is it that I do what I do?" Students collaborate with others in problem solving groups to analyze and understand the questions they have. Through these means I hope to prepare these students for their lives outside of the walls of High School. Can they leave here and become a successful citizen who understands their potential and strives for greatness?
