Hi! I’m Gina Maksimchuk. This is my 4th year teaching at Abbot. I’ve also taught a 1st and 2nd grade split and special education. I attended the University of Michigan for my Bachelor’s and received my Master’s from Eastern Michigan University. I absolutely love teaching kindergarten! Five year olds never cease to amuse and amaze me. Each year brings new little smiling faces who are excited to be at school. What a privilege to get to share that and encourage curiosity and lifelong learning!

I live in the Abbot neighborhood- say hello if you see me! My husband, Dmitrii, and I welcomed our little girl into the world just a few months ago. Ellie loves to smile, see new things, and eat her hands! We also have three dogs- Blitzen, Peanut, and Jelly. I enjoy spending time with family and friends, reading, trying new foods, and nature walks. My husband and I also like to travel and see new places together.
