Tracy Wirak

Tracy graduated from the University of Montana in Missoula, Montana and recieved a B.A. in Elementary Education with a minor in Environmental Studies. She spent 2 years teaching 6th grade in Browning, Montana on the Blackfeet Indian Reservation before moving up to Haines.

"Working with children in the classroom is a joy but where I have really found my passion is in environmental and place-based education. I have taught at the Teton Science School in Kelly, WY, the Montana Natural History Center in Missoula, MT, and the Glacier Institute in Glacier National Park, MT. My experience working with children in the outdoors has been a positive one and I am very excited to have the opportunity to work with them again in one of my favorite places in the world, Haines Alaska!"
