About Mrs. Kountz 

My name is Mollie Kountz.  I am in my 25th year of teaching science.  This is my 11th year at Jackson Middle School.  Prior to joining the Jackson staff, I taught at Pleasant View Middle School for 14 years.  I have always taught science, but I have also taught 7th grade social studies and language arts.  

I earned a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education from Capital University in 2001.  I earned a Masters degree in Educational Leadership in 2004 from the University of Dayton.  

I grew up on a farm near Pleasantville, Ohio.  Country living led to my love of animals and being outdoors.  While growing up I participated in 4-H (completing projects in cooking, sewing and dairy goats) and band (percussion and auxiliary corp).  

My husband Jeremy and I live in Hilliard and have 2 sons.  Pierce is in the 12th grade and loves soccer and also plays violin.  Ewan is in 7th grade and enjoys running, swimming and playing the cello.
