Scotchtown Avenue Elementary School educates students in grades K-2.

It has always been my dream to lead an elementary school that focuses on early childhood education. I loved teaching kindergarten and believe that making an educational impact on students during their early years can set a strong foundation for success, and develop lifelong learners.
Lina Polchinski, Assistant Principal
