About Me

My TR Story

Hello and welcome to Mr. Nolen's Class. I teach three Science class, three Social Studies classes, and the Student Council class. I am your host for what I hope will be an interesting and fun ride through the world of science, history and geography, and good student government . I just wanted to take a moment to tell you a little about myself. I graduated from TRHS a few years back , so I feel like I have always been a Devildog. I have been teaching here for over 20 years and counting. I graduated from Winthrop University (College back then) with a BA (that is a Bachelor of Arts degree) and then a MAT (a Masters of Arts in Teaching). Then a few years after that, I became highly qualified in Special Education from Furman University. I am now entering my fourteenth year as the Student Council Advisor and I am loving every minute of it .

I have always believed that an unhappy student does not learn as well as a happy one. As a result of that belief, I always try to add some humor to my class. After all, humor is the best medicine for many problems. I look forward to working with you.
