  •  Ezra Shearer  
    Social Studies Department  
       I moved to Montana from Athens, Ohio, in August of 2010. In Athens I earned a BA in History and an MEd from Ohio University and spent time training and teaching in a variety of settings. I have been teaching at SHS since January 2011. Since then I have served as a coach and advisor to a variety of activities including track, speech and debate and model UN. I have also spent additional time on a number of district and building committees, including the Social Studies Curriculum Review and Tech Committee. For the last several years I have also acted as the Social Studies Department Chair.
         I never intended to be an "AP" teacher but found myself tasked with developing a number of AP courses at Sentinel. I believe that a rigorous course of study early in an academic career will lead to considerable gains in the future. I also believe that reducing the cost of college is of paramount importance and thus wholly endorse the AP program.
          Proffessional development and continuous learning is very important. To keep improving I serve as AP Reader for World History in the spring of each year. During the past year I completed the National Geographic Certified Teacher Program and served as a United States Institute of Peace Teacher Fellow for 2017-2018.     
        
       I am always open to meeting with parents and students, please call or email for an appointment. For more information on my classes follow along via google classroom.
