Get to Know Ms. Pauker
Welcome to my classroom website. I am Ms. Melanie Pauker, a 7th grade English teacher at Crittenden Middle School. Go Cougars!
I was born and raised in New Jersey, where I studied and graduated from Rowan University with a dual major in Education and English. I moved to Virginia in January of 2012. While this is only my second year at Crittenden, it already feels like home.
I aim to create a fun-filled, student-centered learning environment, where students can celebrate achievements and progress while developing into life-long learners and critical thinkers. I hold high expectations for each of my students in hopes to prepare them to become active members of the community. However, my expectations are always within reach.
It takes a team to teach a child; together, let's make this year a huge success!
