Meet the Teacher

My name is Beth Philcrantz and I am so thrilled to be teaching 5th grade again this year! I started my career in education teaching music to K-4 students, then I became a Title 1 teacher, and now I'm in the 5th grade classroom. I earned both a bachelors and masters degree in music education from UMass Lowell, and earned a masters in elementary education from Southern New Hampshire University. I have been at PES for 7.5 years and have truly loved every minute of it. This is my 6th year as a classroom teacher and I can't wait to see what adventures lie ahead with this year's 5th grade. 

When I am not at school I am usually busy with my family. My husband, Brian, and I enjoy home improvement projects, I love reading, and we really enjoy watching both of our children play sports year round. My boys are Collin (14) who plays soccer and baseball, and Camden (10) who plays football, basketball, and baseball. They are busy, active boys who keep us going all the time! I also have two rescue dogs, Opie and Ollie, who are the best!
