You knew me last year as Ms. Polotsky, but I will be going by Ms. Maier from now on. It reflects in my email address- kemaier@cps.edu.

I'm looking forward to being your teacher again this year! It is my 4th year at Skinner North, and 16th year teaching.

I live in the Logan Square area with my daughter, who is starting 2nd grade.

We got a puppy over the summer. She is our first pet, and she is a French bulldog named Sugar.

Sixth grade is all about Earth Science! We will rock out with soil, rocks and minerals, erosion and weathering, and move on to plate tectonics, weather, climate change, and planetary science. :)
