Welcome to Coyotepod.com, one of the online homes of Mr. VanScoyoc’s Science and Yearbook classes. If you are looking for an agenda or general information about these classes, you have come to the right place. I will continue to use Moodle for online learning activities, but I wanted to provide a place for students and parents to quickly see what it is happening in my classes. Come back often or subscribe to the RSS feed for automatic updates. Thanks for stopping by!
