\"\"<\/a>Welcome!<\/h1>\n

I’m Mr. Rauscher. I’m new to Dearborn High School this year. I am teaching US Economics and all the video production classes because those subjects go together very naturally.<\/p>\n

Please note that I’ve created a separate page for my two different subject areas. MY blog for each subject area should display on that page. The blog is useful for updating parents and students about what we are studying and what work is due each week.<\/p>\n

Please also sign up for email updates about the blog on the right.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I am not originally from the Midwest. I grew up in New York. When I was your age, I actually took a boat to school. That’s a picture of the boat on the left. It’s called the Staten Island Ferry and it carries 65,000 people every day across New York Harbor. The Ferry gives you amazing views of the Statue of Liberty and the skyline of downtown Manhattan.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>For college, I went to the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. I was there at the same time as Troy Polamalu and Carson Palmer. My degree was in Screenwriting. Several of my classmates have gone on to make exciting projects in film and television.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>After college, I spent more than ten years working in entertainment. Most of my work was in television, but I also worked in movies and video games. I worked on The Apprentice<\/em>, America’s Got Talent<\/em>, Kitchen Nightmares<\/em>, and many projects for MTV, Showtime, and ESPN.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I recently had twin babies. Their names are Theodore and Eleanor. If you ever wonder why I don’t respond to emails late at night, these two kids are probably the reason why.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I’m a passionate and frequent gamer. This includes board games, card games, and video games. Currently, I’m playing a lot Settlers of Catan<\/em>, Cities Skylines<\/em> on PC, Fortnite<\/em> on XBox, and Dead of Winter<\/em>. If you’re lucky, I’ll work some games into the classwork, especially in economics.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Be warned, I have very loud sneezes. They often make my babies cry.<\/p>\n

I also have a sweet beard. If you want to be either an economist or a \"\"<\/a>professional filmmaker, a great beard goes a long way to getting you a job.<\/p>\n

I am terrible with names. It will take me months to learn all of your names. If I get one wrong, please correct me gently and I will apologize.<\/p>\n

I’m very excited to work with you this year. I am passionate about both my content areas and the opportunity to share it with you is a lot of fun for me.<\/p>\n
