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 US and World History on their future.

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!
