January Staff Spotlight
Mrs. Kim Pooler
Mrs. Kim Pooler holds the important job of building remedial reading, math and study skills for high school students. Our high school students are in excellent hands with Mrs. Pooler. Her experience, commitment to students, and daily support make her an asset to all of her students attending Carrabec High School.
Mrs. Pooler came to Carrabec High School in the spring of 2025. She acquired her Master’s degree in Special Education from the University of Farmington in 2025 and her Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education in 2013. Prior to joining us at RSU#74 Ms. Pooler worked in MSAD 13 for 4 years, at the Community Regional Charter School for 4 years, Spurwink in Cornville for a year and KVCAP for 5 years. She is currently working as a special education teacher and case manager at Carrabec High School.
Mrs. Pooler’s strong work ethic and commitment to student’s learning is evident throughout her day working with students. She works hard to build relationships with her students and continually redirects them to a path of learning. She encourages her students to develop improved academic skills, emotional regulation and independence. She is consistently supporting students to gain skills to support their success in their future goals whether they are to enter the workforce or go on to college. She has an open door policy for her students and is available to support them throughout their days.
This year Mrs. Pooler has gone above her role as a teacher and provided leadership for the special education team at Carrabec High School. She provides support and direction to a variety of Educational Technicians providing student instruction and support in the building. She establishes good parent relationships and is quick to reach out to parents to maintain communication, progress or discuss issues. Mrs. Pooler is kind in her interactions, thoughtful and professional in her discussions about students and their progress.
Mrs. Pooler has a positive attitude, a strong work ethic, and outstanding rapport with students. She is willing to help out others and is always looking to improve. She maintains her focus on student progress and improving their academic performance above all else. She is a huge asset to our students and staff. Her understanding of the special education process and services is valuable for parents, students and staff.
We are thankful that Mrs. Pooler is a member of our RSU# 74 staff. We are happy to honor her in the January staff spotlight. Thank you for all that you do for our students and district!
