Mr. Poulin

Welcome to Mr. Poulin's page! I am starting my first year as a Social Studies teacher at WHS for the 2019-2020 school year. For the past seven years I have taught Social Studies at Oxford Hills High School in Norway, ME. I am a 2004 graduate of Edward Little High School, a 2008 graduate of the University of New England and in 2014 I received my Masters in Education from the University of Southern Maine. I am looking forward to starting a new journey here in Windham.
 
Go Eagles!
