Welcome to 7th grade Social Studies
Mr. Burke
A study of the world from 1400 to the present.
This is my 11th year at Rverwood Middle.
Previously, I taught five years at Smithfield Middle, so this is my 16th in Johnston County.
I received my BA in History from Elon University and subsequently attended Barton College for my teaching education courses.
I married my beautiful wife Melissa on 9/11 1999, so we are coming up on our 21st Anniversry.
My wife's (Clayton High alum) family is from Clayton, so I have deep roots and relatives all around the area.
I am originally from Virginia Beach, Va. We also lived in a rustic log cabin surrouded by mountains and trout streams in Boone, NC
I really love history and current events, and look forward to opening up your child's eyes to the world around them.
I passionately believe that a strong foundation in social studies is essential in helping our children to become productive adults wherever their life takes them.
