LAUREN PIKULSKI

Staff Profile from 22-23 School Year

What are you most excited about this school year? I am most excited to build relationships with the students and staff here at Kolmar Avenue Elementary School!

What is something you like to do for fun? In my spare time, I enjoy taking care of my animals (2 dogs & 1 cat)  and working out at the gym. 

What would students be surprised to find out about you?
Students would be surprised to find out that a big reason of why I got into teaching was because my former 3rd grade teacher came to my high school graduation to see her first class of students graduate.

What are your “trapped on a desert island” books, movies, or music? I would be very content on a deserted island with nothing but mystery books,  country music, and Disney movies! 

Is there a quote or saying that resonates with you? “Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.” - William Butler

What is most important to you as an educator? The most important aspect to me about being an educator is promoting a safe and welcoming environment that caters to all the needs of my diverse students.
