I'm Terry Jarvis and I teach 8th grade Social Studies and English Language Arts.  I have been teaching for 25 years with the last 19 years at C.S. Porter. Currently, I teach two Social Studies classes and three ELA classes.  My previous experience includes teaching at the middle school level in Great Falls and Roy, Montana. I earned my master's degree in Learning Development in 2003 while teaching at East Middle School in Great Falls.  A large piece of my teaching experience has been working with reading and writing programs, which is a passion of mine. Middle School is my niche and I look forward each year to developing relationships with students, which is critical for their learning success.
