Mendham High School

MR. CHURCH’S WEBPAGE

I have been teaching at Mendham High School since 1999 and presently teach World History & Cultures. I attended Rutgers University as an undergraduate and my degree is in Anthropology. I received my Master’s degree from East Stroudsburg University. I work collaboratively with two teachers, Mrs. LoScalzo and Mrs. Dolan. I'm also the advisor of the Amnesty International club.

WORLD HISTORY

We will be learning about the history of the world from the 1400s to the present.  We will be taking a regional approach focusing on the Middle East, Africa, India, China, Japan and South America. Some of the topics that we will cover are geography & climate, independence movements, non-violent resistance, communism vs. capitalism, terrorism, economic and education systems.
