Welcome back to school and to World History Pre-AP

Welcome to World History Pre-AP.  I am so glad you are here.  There is no question that this will be the most rigorous and difficult year of history for you so far.  But, the good news is that APUSH (US History AP/Dual Credit) next year will be easily twice as hard as this one!  :)  And that is my job:  Prepare you for the opportunity as a junior to take college level history.  This means we are going to have to work very hard.  And because of the hard work... we have no choice but to have a lot of fun to balance it all out!  
Good luck and don't forget to come back tomorrow!
