Tamara Krauch, Visual Arts Teacher
Pocomoke Middle School, Worcester County

Tamara Krauch graduated Magna Cum Laude in Art Education and earned Summa Cum Laude for her Masters in Post-Secondary Education from Salisbury University. She has been teaching Visual Art at Pocomoke Middle School for six years. Using the Arts Immersion model, Tamara believes that art is naturally connected to all subjects and provides a powerful, proven form of differentiated instruction. In a school with 54% of students at the poverty level, Tamara is helping her students understand mathematics, social context, and literary meaning through art. With a passion for building relationships, Tamara mentors at-risk students and is an after-school sponsor.
