Mr. Davis's
United States History Class

 Warwick Alumnus Returns

I am a native of Newport News and a graduate of Warwick High School and the College of William and Mary in Virginia. While in college I served as a President's Aide, Black Student Organization President, and Student Association Vice President for Cultural Affairs. I pledged Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Incorporated and received the Benjamin Stoddert-Ewell Award for outstanding service to the College and the community, as well as the Algernon Sydney-Sullivan Award for contributions made towards the advancement of the College.

Upon graduation from college, I taught World History and World Geography at Ferguson High School during its last year in existence. I then taught Psychology and Pre-I.B. World Geography, sponsored the Sophomore class, and coached Cross Country, Indoor Track, and Outdoor Track for two years at Woodside High School.

In the summer of 1998 I relocated to Northern Virginia and taught in a D.C. Public Charter School prior to accepting two positions in corporate finance. In 2003 I acquired my recertification and currently hold a Virginia teaching certificate in History, current through the year 2007. My family relocated to the peninsula in 2003 and I resumed my teaching and coaching career with Newport News Public Schools.  It has been a very rewarding opportunity to teach in the International Baccalaureate Programme and to coach Cross Country for the past three years at Warwick High School, my alma mater.
