Introducing Mr. Curcuro!

My name is Cameron Curcuro, and I am excited to begin my first year as a high school Social Studies teacher! I look forward to helping students develop a deeper understanding of history, government, and the world around them. My goal is to create a classroom environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, sharing their perspectives, and engaging in meaningful discussions about the events and ideas that have shaped our society.

What I enjoy most about teaching Social Studies is helping students connect the past to the present. Through the study of history, government, and civics, students can better understand the world they live in and the role they play as citizens. I hope to encourage my students to think critically, consider different perspectives, and recognize the importance of being informed and active members of their communities.

Beyond the classroom, I stay busy at DKHS as the Head Coach of the Boys Varsity Soccer team and a Varsity Baseball Coach.

Enterprise students are putting business theory into practice by running a weekly pop-up shop, selling handcrafted "dirty sodas"—customized soft drink blends infused with flavored syrups and other fun add ons! Operating the stand once a week gives the students hands-on experience with inventory management, product pricing, and customer service while creating a fun, weekly tradition for the school community. Driven by a commitment to social responsibility, the students reinvest all proceeds directly into local community improvement initiatives.

With a 5:00am start on Tuesday morning, 6 of our FFA members headed to Indianapolis for the National FFA Convention.

On their way, they toured Corteva, Traders Point Creamery, Schakolad Chocolate Factory, Exotic Feline Rescue, and Ozark Fisheries. While at the 99th National FFA Convention, the started off by attending the opening session at Lucas Oil Stadium. During this session they heard from National FFA Officers and Advisor Dr. Travis Park and keynote speaker Scott McKain who spoke on the skills FFA members get and how to use them on real life. After the session they attended the National FFA Expo and Career show which included booths from several colleges along with major agriculture companies from around the country. Then they tested their teamwork skills in doing an Escape Room where they successfully escaped with 14 minutes to go.


Today they are spending a few more hours in the convention center before hitting the road to come home to be back by game time.
