Miss Poplaski was an awesome teacher and my children learned a lot about reading, writing and arithmetic and more importantly they learned Kindness. Thank you Miss Poplaski

Miss Poplaski was my first grade teacher at Holmes Elementary. She was very sweet and kind, and when I graduated from High School I received a graduation card from her!
