This is a one-time class for learners to get a glimpse of all that is Inauguration Day. This will be an interactive class in which students will be presented with information about Inauguration Day ceremonies throughout history and will discuss this information with their peers. We'll talk about why these traditions exist and highlight the fun touches that each President adds to schedule. During class, we'll watch some video clips, look at pictures, and hear recordings of past events. From the fashion to the festivals from the swearing in to the speeches, students will explore the Washington, D.C. scene like they were attending themselves.

Teacher expertise and credentials
For the last 20 years, I have taught civics, citizenship, and community engagement at the college level and mentored a large number of high school students through various programs for low-income students. For almost 10 years, I worked with international students studying in the United States for the first time, which allowed me to create inclusive curriculum to challenge both domestic and international studies to find common ground in the classroom. In addition, I hold a Juris Doctorate in Law with an emphasis in Constitutional Law and a Master's in Public Affairs both of which allowed me to study the workings of government at all levels.
