Religion, Social Studies

Hello! My name is Elijah Watson, and I am excited to be the Social Studies/Religion teacher at this incredible school! I’m so happy to have this opportunity to introduce myself.

I graduated from Marshall University with my Bachelor’s Degree in Secondary Education. My favorite topics to teach in social studies include Ancient Greece, the Cold War, and the formation of West Virginia!

I am a convert to the faith. I was raised in a fundamentalist Baptist tradition but officially completed RCIA and was received into the Catholic faith on December 23rd, 2018.

In my free time, I love to play guitar, watch new movies, hang out with my friends, and learn new things about history and society! I pride myself on being a fountain of useless information.

I am so excited to meet you and all your students and have the opportunity to teach them throughout these very formative years of their lives. I cannot wait to get in the classroom and hit the ground running this fall! Thank you so much for welcoming me into the Our Lady of Fatima community.
