Hi, Mr. Randall here, I'm the 7th and 8th grade Social Studies teacher at CMS. This summer I was lucky enough to be a Teacher-Ranger-Teacher. I worked for the National Park Service (NPS) as a Ranger so that I could learn more about the NPS and bring that knowledge back to my school. This video was an attempt to show what Saint Croix Island Historic Site has to offer. To see more of my work as a Teacher-Ranger-Teacher see our podcast titled "Saint Croix Island International Historic Site".
