My name is Jeff Hodges and this year I am teaching U.S. History, Government and Economics. I am also the Head Coach for Track & Field and Assistant Coach in Football. I am married to my wonderful wife Denise and have 3 kids (Anthony, Jenna and Matthew). I graduated and received my teaching credential from CSU Long Beach, then earned my Masters Degree from Walden University in Educational Technology. I started my teaching career in 1998 in Long Beach Unified (Lindbergh MS and Millikan HS), then in 2003 we decided to move to Menifee and I began my career at Elsinore HS.
