Mr. DJ Paradis, Social Studies

Quick History:

I am a proud graduate of the Cartersville school system (class of 1999).  

 

I attended and graduated from Lagrange College in the winter of 2003.  After college, I started working at Cartersville Middle School in December 2003.  I have taught seventh grade social studies since 2006. 

I am married to Hailey Hobgood Paradis.  If that name seems familiar to any graduate from Cartersville, it is because she is one of us.  I have an energetic 11-year son that loves to run, play basketball and swim.

I also coach middle school cross country and high school soccer at Cartersville.  I have coached cross country since 2005 and have been with the soccer program since 2004 and the head coach since 2010.
