A NEW ADVENTURE AWAITS FOR YOU!

Welcome to Mrs. McClain's Eighth Grade Social Studies class.

I am entering my eleventh year of teaching at Lincolnton Middle School, and I can't imagine being anywhere else.  I bleed Black and Gold! I was a student of Lincoln County Schools and earned my high school diploma from Lincolnton High School-Go Wolves! I graduated from Gardner-Webb University with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Social Science, and earned my Graduate Certificate for Teaching Middle School Social Studies Education from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. 

When I am not teaching, I love to follow sports!  I am a huge fan of college football (SEC) and basketball (UNC).  I am die-hard Carolina Panther fan and have been since they were awarded the franchise in 1993. In addition, I love to spend time with my family, friends and most importantly my husband, Shaun, and our two dogs, Trudy and Ellie. I also love to hike, bike and craft with my friends. Plus, coloring has become one of my favorite ways to enjoy the silence.

I'm looking forward to a fantastic school year.  You should expect to be challenged in my class, be held to high expectations, and be kind to one another.
