Hi, I'm Ms. Poncelet! This will be my fifth year teaching at Summit Street School and my seventh year teaching here in Vermont.

When I'm not teaching you can most likely find me outside. In the warm weather I love to run, hike, and swim. When it gets cold out that means it's time for cross country and downhill skiing!

I also love to travel. I grew up right next door on the New Hampshire seacoast and love to visit the beach anytime I can. I also enjoy visiting my parents in the White Mountains, my brother in Oregon, and my sister in Colorado.

I can't wait to get to know you and I am so excited for all our adventures together in third grade this year!

Dear Incoming Third Grader:

We are so excited to get to know you this year. We hope you have been enjoying your summer. This summer we have been reading a lot and we can’t wait to hear about all the great books you have been reading as well. We hope you have also spent time doing activities you love to do and we can’t wait to hear all about your adventures when we go back to school!

In third grade we create, learn, and work together. We are mathematicians, dreamers, readers, scientists, adventurers, and writers. And most importantly- third graders do hard things! We are so excited to get to know you all and to go on this new adventure with you! It’s going to be an amazing year.

When you come to school, you should bring your backpack, your lunch if you bring lunch from home, a water bottle, and a smile. We will give you all of the other school supplies that you will need.

We are excited to work together to make your third grade year the best it can possibly be! Enjoy the rest of your summer and we look forward to seeing you on the first day of school.

See You Soon!

Ms. Hamilton, Ms. Poncelet, Ms. Lines
