Meet Mrs. Pool

My name is Molly Pool and this is my 2nd year teaching at South Point, and my 13th year teaching! Before teaching at South Point, I have taught every grade from 1st through 5th! I did my student teaching in a 1st/2nd grade classroom, I spent 6 years in a 3rd/4th grade classroom, and most recently spent 5 years in 5th grade. 

My family moved to East Grand Forks from Savage, MN in August 2022. My husband, Jeff works at Northland Tech Community College as the Dean of Student Affairs. I have a daughter named Harper who is 8 1/2 and a son, Max, who is 6! Some of our favorite things to do are go to the park, go to concerts, go out to dinner, spend time as a family, go to the zoo, or travel to the Twin Cities to visit my family or South Dakota to visit Jeff's family.

I graduated in December 2010 from the University of St. Thomas with my elementary teaching license and Masters. Before that I graduated from the University of Minnesota in 2007 with a degree in Strategic Communications: Advertising. Between schools, I worked for a magazine publishing company, at a local radio station (KDWB) in promotions, and in events at Mall of America. Though I enjoyed all of those jobs, I knew I always wanted to be a teacher!

I look forward to working with all of the students and families, the 4th grade team, and all of the staff at South Point!
