Hello! My name is Katie Tuzinsky and I am so excited to have your child in my English Language Arts class. Let me start by telling you a little bit about myself. I joined the Algonquin Middle School team in 2015 and I feel so lucky to be a part of such a dedicated team of educators. My previous teaching experience includes 4 years teaching 8th grade language arts at Warren Woods Middle School.
I graduated from Rochester College in Rochester Hills, MI. While at Rochester I was a 4 year varsity soccer player and spent the majority of my free time engaged in athletics, as well as, tutoring local elementary and middle school students, and cheering on MSU! GO GREEN! In July of 2012, I married my best friend, and in September of 2016 we welcomed our first child. Riley Jo was born September 1st and has brought so much joy and love to our lives. We couldn't be any happier.
I grew up in Clinton Township and graduated from Chippewa Valley High School. I am very excited to join the district in which I was raised! It has always been a dream of mine to become a member of the teaching community that so greatly impacted me. I love teaching, it is undeniably my passion and I can’t wait to share that passion with your child.
We have a great year ahead of us! 6th grade is a new adventure for both student and parent alike. It is a year of new found independence, and wonderful new experiences. I believe that parent involvement is essential for student success. To make this process easy on all parties involved I have created a website, and Remind account to keep parents up to date on the events in our classroom. If your child is ever absent, they can access any homework or handouts on my website.
Don’t be surprised if you hear from me frequently. I dedicate one day a week to call parents and let you know how wonderful your student is doing in my class. If you ever need to get a hold of me don’t hesitate to send me an email or give me a call and I will get back to you by the end of the day.
We, as a staff, are so excited to have your child join our Eagle family. We believe that all students can and will succeed here at Algonquin. We are committed to providing a positive and safe environment dedicated to preparing goal-driven, life-long learners for the twenty-first century.
I am looking forward to learning and growing together.
