I have a B.S. in Geology from the California Institute of Technology (2001). My science course work was mostly in geology, physics, chemistry, and math. I strive to teach science as a process or a way of knowing rather than as a body of knowledge, but my classes still tend to be content-driven due to the nature of high school curricula, state standards, and College Board requirements
This is my 9th year teaching at VCS; it's my 6th year teaching AP Biology, 5th year teaching Advanced Chemistry, and 4th year teaching Physics and AP Environmental Science. In previous years, I have also taught Biology (6 years), Chemistry (1 year), Human Anatomy (1), and Earth Science (1).
Contacting meThe best way to contact me is by email: kurtk@villagechristian.org. I usually reply to inquiries by email within 24 hours or one business day. You can also leave a message in the High School Office: 818.768.5540.
