About

Welcome to my website! I will be the US History and virtual World History teacher for many of the students attending Southside this year. 

My name is James Thompson and I am a graduate from Ohio University (2019), the Defense Language Institute (2008), and Texas State Technical College (2004).

I am also a veteran of the United States Air Force. 

I am a world-wide traveler, having spent almost as much time out of the country as in it. I hope to bring my wide range of experiences into the classroom to show my students the direct impact of how government and economics both impact and interact with their daily lives and goals.

I love reading, writing, being active, and taking part in festivals like Renaissance fairs and conventions.

I look forward to this year and expanding the horizons of my students while also having all of them teach me about the great city of Greenville!
