About Mr. Heath
My name is Matthew T. Heath and I currently teach American History at Grant Middle School here in Syracuse, NY. I was born and raised in Syracuse and currently live in Geneva, NY with my wife and son. I attended and graduated from Liverpool High School in 2004. Upon graduation I attended Onondaga Community College, where I then transferred and graduated from Le Moyne College with a B.A. in History and Education.
I attended Le Moyne College once again to complete my Masters work in Special Education. My Masters Thesis project investigated the use of new literacies in a constructivist learning environment. I still try to work and offer my support to the education department at Le Moyne College in anyway that I can.
I taught six years at Fowler High School. While I was there I had the opportunity to get involved with many different groups and sports teams. Along with another teacher, I was a class advisor for the last graduating class from Fowler High School, class of 2017. I also coached the JV soccer team. In my first year as coach we went undefeated, 17-0! While our varsity team ended the year being ranked number one in New York State! I am also the middle/long distance coach for Fowler indoor track, and was the head JV baseball coach for Syracuse West baseball for five years.
I am very excited for all the new and great things we are doing here at Grant Middle School and look forward to another amazing year!
