Hi, I am Jacklyn Bonneau, a teacher at Massachusetts Academy for Mathematics and Science at Worcester, Massachusetts. I joined the faculty here after fifteen years of teaching at Shrewsbury High School in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts, and several years elsewhere. I live in Thompson, Connecticut with my husband, a newly retired science teacher and serve as Chairman of the Board of Education. I have a son, Chris, who recieved his doctorate from Michigan State in Political Science. He will begin teaching at the University of Pittsburg. I also have a daughter, Jenn who is serving an electrical apprenticeship with the US Navy in Portsmouth Virginia.
At Mass Academy, I currently teach Physics, Research Seminar, Introduction to Engineering and electives like forensic science. The academy is a school for students accelerated in mathematics and science as juniors and seniors. It is an exam school which is free to the students in the state and considered a public school. We are located in a new facility just off the campus of Worcester Polytechnic Institute. Our philosophy includes an active learning environment where students explore many topics in an interdisciplinary way. Please walk through some of these below and let us know what you think. I am currently working to construct student pages, faculty support pages will be following.
