Hi there, My name is Kait Ostrov! I teach both Academic and Honors level Earth & Space Science here at Brunswick High School. I have also taught  Chemistry, Physics, Geophysical Science, and Physics of Music in the past. This will be my eighth year at BHS and eleventh year teaching high school science.  I earned my B.S. in Chemistry and Adolescent Education from the State University of New York at Oneonta and student taught in New York City.  After graduating, I moved to Maine with my husband and we’ve been here ever since!  I hold a M.S.Ed. in Educational Technology and love learning about new ways to use technology in the classroom.  I believe that technology should enhance instruction and learning so I am always open to your feedback!

My teaching style emphasizes experiments, collaboration, problem-solving, technology, projects, real-world applications and making learning fun!  I am excited and passionate about teaching science to high school students so I try my best to make learning relevant and interesting.  If there is anything I can do to support your learning, please let me know!  I hope that I can share my love of science with you and help you better understand how our world works.

When I am not at work I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, making epic cheese platters, gardening, re-designing my home, playing Settlers of Catan (Cities and Knights is my jam) and scrolling through Instagram and TikTok.  I love animals – especially dogs, goats, and elephants.
