About Mr. Gallagher
I earned my Bachelor's degree in Political Science at Binghamton University. While I majored in Political Science, I minored in Spanish, and can speak the language proficiently. After graduating Binghamton University, I worked on Wall St. for both the Bank of New York and for J,P. Morgan Chase. I worked in the banking divisions there for ten years, developing important life skills and flourishing professionally. At the same time, I began mentoring high school students through my local parish, and soon realized that teaching could be my true calling in life.
Therefore, I returned to school at night to obtain my Masters of Science degree in Social Studies Education from Queens College. I am currently certified to teach middle and high school Social Studies, and I have my Religious Certificate to teach Religion in the Diocese of Rockville Centre.

Welcome back! The Seventh grade is a time of exciting transition in one’s education. Your child has officially completed elementary education and has now begun the first phase of high school preparation. I look forward to being your child’s Social Studies teacher this year, and have many exciting activities planned for the seventh grade. The Seventh grade Social Studies Curriculum is based on the NY State Social Studies Standards and focuses on concepts of geography, European exploration, European colonization of American, and nation-building. Some content areas of focus are the geography and settlement of North America, European exploration and colonization of America, the American Revolution and Revolutionary War, and the establishment of American government. Instruction in my classroom uses research-based strategies with a myriad of approaches designed to help every student achieve their best.
