My name is Scott McAnally and like many of you I am finishing out my senior year at MSU. I'm going for my B.A. degree in history and certification to teach social studies. My minor is Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL). I would love to eventually teach social studies in a high school setting while also providing a few hours of language support social studies classes to English language learners. I have a decent understanding of the German language but would love to learn Spanish some day.

Outside of school and my future career I also have a passion for marching band and drum corps. I marched four years in my high school marching band playing baritone. I spent the summers following my senior year of high school marching with the Cadets Drum & Bugle Corps. I spent this past summer teaching the Boston Crusaders and had a blast experiencing the instructor side of the activity.

During the fall I teach marching band at Plymouth-Canton Educational Park. This will by my third year teaching and we are all very excited this season because we were invited to be a part of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City this November. We are spending our rehearsal time working on our competitive field show as well as preparing a special piece for Macy's.

That's about it! I'm looking forward to working with all of you this semester.

Cheers, Scott
