Grades 5 and 6 Mathematics:

Hello. My name is Nancy Pollack. I will be teaching grades 5 and 6 mathematics for the Virtual Learning Academy (VLA). I'm excited about this upcoming year. To share a little about my teaching experience: I was the math coordinator at HCS for 15 years before returning to the classroom in 2016. Before working at HCS, I was a classroom teacher for eleven years at three other schools in Vermont. In sum, I've been a classroom teacher for Grades 2 through Grade 6 and I have team taught/coached with teachers in grades Pre K through 8, and in special education.

Tidbits about me: I love teaching mathematics. But truthfully, I just like working and learning with kids (and adults) no matter what subject area. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy spending time with my family, as well as with my dog, 2 cats and a bunny. I have two busy children, a daughter who is entering her sophomore year in high school this fall, and a son who is a junior at college. I love to read, travel, cook, ride my mountain bike (preferably single track), exercise, ski and spend time with friends. Treats I love are, sour patch kids, watermelon and peach gummy candy, and believe it or not, just about any vegetable!

The best way to contact me is via email. I will always respond as soon as I can. I look forward to working with all of you this year!
