About Me

Hi, I'm Mrs. Poulsen. I've been teaching for 5 years, specializing in gifted and talented education. I also coached cross country for 10 years and have connected with so many wonderful athletes. Last year I moved from Lewiston, Idaho to Willow Creek to teach 1st grade and loved it, the students, and my teaching team. I am currently working on my Masters Degree from NNU. What takes up most of my time is my kids and all their activities. I have been married 20 years and have 4 kids. I have 2 boys and 2 girls, my boys have graduated and are working at their jobs, and my two girls are high school and middle school. I've gone to a lot of cross country meets, basketball games, track meets, and gymnastic and dance competitions for my kids. I love cheering them on! I also love cheering on my students, I love first grade because of all the growth I get to see. My students can do remarkable things! Looking forward to this school year!!!
