This will be my first full year here at Magee. Last year, I taught 7th grade Language Arts here during 2nd semester. For the last several years before that I taught history and social studies at Lake Forest High School in Lake Forest and at the Illinois Math & Science Academy in Lake Forest. I first began teaching as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Romania in the early 2000s, and have also taught on a couple of Fulbright grants, one to the Republic of Moldova and one to the Philippines. I'm very happy to be part of the Magee family.

Students & parents can find all relevant class information on our Google Classroom page. Unfortunately, you do need an @rlas-116.org email address to register for Classroom, so parents will need to log in with their child's device or log-on information.

The best way to reach me is by email at dkotlarczyk@rlas-116.org. I'll respond to all emails sent during the school day before the end of that day; I may not get to something sent later until the following day.
