Hello Steve,

I taught History at the middle school level for six years and five at the sixth-grade level. During my time stationed at one middle school, I also worked in the office for seven years in community partnership and as the administrative designee, which meant I had to assist in many administrative roles, although I was still technically a teacher. Most of my career was spent teaching grades 4-6. Yes, a background in history could be a contributing factor in collecting baseball cards, although my wife would view it more in the light of budgetary delinquency.
