Early College High School is very pleased to welcome our new Teacher, Christopher Niswonger!

They take as much time together on the road visiting various historical sites, monuments, or something more kid-friendly. In Mr. Niswonger’s personal spare time, he can usually be found in a gym or with his face in a book. He believes it just as much now as he did when he was younger; keep your mind active.
