Welcome to Biology I! I hope you are excited to begin a new school term. I look forward to getting to know my new students. Let me tell you a little about myself. I have been teaching at GHS since 1992! I am married and have two sons. I have a bachelor's degree in biology from the College of Charleston and am certified to work with GT students. I have a "hands-on" approach to teaching biology, therefore you will be participating in a number of labs and activities each week in my class. This year students enrolled in Honors Biology I, CP Biology I and Applied Biololgy I and II will be required to take the END OF COURSE exam. In addition to teaching biology I am also one of the sponors of the GHS Beta Club. Parents please feel free to contact me via email or phone (941-5600) with any questions or concerns. My email address is cobbsw@gwd50.org
Prepare for the EOC!! Students may use USA Test Prep to review and reinforce material being covered in class. The address is www.usatestprep.com and the student username is greenwoodsc and the password is newton10.

I am available most mornings between 8-8:30 am and most afternoons from 3:30-4:30pm. Students should make an appointment to ensure that I am in the room when they come by for help. The homework center is also open on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons from 3:30 to 5pm.
