Darren Bessett
Social Studies Department - Teacher
It is a privilege to work at Fairview High School and serve the Fairview community. My duties include teaching history (my favorite), geography and government, all of which I have been doing for 25+ years. Helping young adults better understand their world is a consequential duty, especially in our current, modern-day era.
In addition to being at Fairview, I am actively involved with the Navy Reserves, and have just returned from a year-long deployment to the Persian Gulf region.
"There is nothing more enticing, disenchanting and enslaving than the life at sea." - Joseph Conrad
"They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters; these see the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep."
-- Psalm 107
