Welcome to the 2024-2025 School Year!
Ms. Paige Bank
8th Grade English Language Arts Teacher
Room #: 122
My name is Paige Bank, and I am one of the eighth-grade Language Arts Teachers at Dover Middle School. This year we will focus on reading, writing, and vocabulary development.
Before joining the Dover Middle School team, I worked in various public and private schools throughout Northern New Jersey as an English and Language Arts teacher. This is my 17th year teaching!
I have a B.A. in Secondary English Education with a minor in General Music from the University of Hartford, an M.A. in Reading from Montclair State University, and an M.A. in Educational Leadership from Montclair State University, and I currently hold five New Jersey teaching certifications: Teacher of English, Reading Specialist, Supervisor, Principal, and Superintendent.
As one of the eighth-grade Language Arts teachers, I will work to address each students' individual needs in reading comprehension, vocabulary, and writing. Throughout the year we will focus on thinking critically and communicating effectively. We will utilize both print and digital resources and materials while focusing on becoming effective and productive members of society.
I am looking forward to working with all of the students and families this year! If you have any questions or concerns you can reach me via email at: pbank@dover-nj.org.
