Scott Nichols
I am a passionate social science educator with over a decade of success teaching Advanced Placement courses and leading academic teams. Certified in Texas for Social Studies (4–8, 7–12) and ESL Supplemental, I foster critical thinking, civic engagement, and adaptability in students. Currently, I serve as Department Head and a Guiding Leadership and RTI team member at a North Texas high school, teaching AP U.S. Government and Politics, AP Macroeconomics, U.S. Government, Economics, and World Geography. I have extensive experience designing curriculum, integrating technology, and leading professional development. Previously, I chaired departments at two Florida high schools, developed innovative strategies, and supported district instructional improvements. I am also an AP U.S. Government and Politics Rater for the Educational Testing Service. As a lifelong learner, I am pursuing a Master of Education at the University of North Texas to equip students for a changing world better.
