Mr. Kedley's Mission Statement

As a Social Studies teacher I am the Jack of all trades and the master of none. I personally believe that one should never achieve mastery because mastery is infinite. I am a lifelong learner who is passionate about teaching the youth of America. I promise that I will raise the ceiling to raise the floor, use the 7 habits, and technology to mold the minds of our nation’s future. History is the future!
