Have you ever wondered about the people who are assigned to guard the President? Did you know that we didn't always think this was an important role? (Quick fact - During the Civil War, President Lincoln did not have body guards but the Union Generals did. Ulysses S. Grant was invited to go to Ford's theater that night but declined. He said that he always felt guilty because if he had accepted and gone to the theater, his body guards would have been there to protect the president.) In this one time class, we will learn about why the agency was originally created in 1865, what happened after the civil war, how 2 more presidents were assassinated before their roles changed, and what the qualifications are to become one.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
In this class, there will be discussions about the 4 U.S. Presidents who have been assassinated and other attempts at presidents lives. These discussions will be in an historical context and will be at an age appropriate manner.
Live – There may be some Youtube videos that are seen during this class. I will share my screen and learners will not need to access them on their own.

I have been an educator on Outschool since February of 2018. I have my MBA and MHA, both of which have taught me the value of conducting research and asking questions. I have a passion for history, organization, reading, and learning. You can usually find me in the middle of 2-3 books or watching a documentary.
I am also an Outschool ACE Educator, which means that I continually seek out ways to improve my teaching skills and knowledge, as well as the learner experience. Some of the seminars/courses that I have attended in the past are: Foundations for Teaching and Learning About Native Americans; The Presence and Absence of Asian America: What Truths Lie Beyond the Headlines; Using the “Diary of Anne Frank” to Amplify Students’ Voices; Painting a Just Picture – Art and Activism.
