Welcome to the Life Science class that Mark Fike teaches at King George Middle School.
My name is Mark Fike. I teach Life Science at King George Middle School and was actually a student here many years ago. I have a degree in environmental science and have many years of experience interacting with wildlife and fisheries biologists. I am also a published writer with credits in a number of publications across the United States. In my off time I run the King George Outdoor Club (kgoutdoorclub.com) and spend time in the outdoors as much as I can. My science class often gets to see some of the interesting things I have found while in the woods or on the waters in our region.
Hello! Here is my contact information for KGMS.
