Welcome to 7th grade Social Studies with Mr. Dowd. Working at Liberty Middle School is a great experience!  I have a Master's Degree in Adolescent and Secondary Education and a Bachelor's Degree in History/Secondary Education.  Previously, I also worked in as an Academic Adviser for student-athletes at Wagner College.  At Liberty, I am the Cross Country and Track and Field Coach and I am an avid runner in my spare time.  The 7th grade Social Studies curriculum is focused on Civics: Government and Economics.
