My name is Ms. Keller and I teach Science and Mathematics on Team Velocity. I have sincerely enjoyed serving Winooski Middle School and its students and families for twenty-five years. While the days may be long (from time to time), the years are definitely short and I am looking forward to the next twenty-five!
I also enjoy being physically active. I like to run, canoe, and practice martial arts. I also like books, rocks (yes, rocks), music and good math problems. I am a very occasional violinist, but have had a lifetime of enjoying and playing classical music. Last spring, I completed a three-year graduate program in mathematics education at the University of Vermont.
I am excited about the new school year and look forward to teaching and learning with Winooski students and their families. Please feel free to contact me by phone or email. I’m here to help!

My name is Mr. Gore and I teach Social Studies and Language Arts on Team Velocity. I have been in Winooski Middle School for two and a half school years now, and I am really excited to be taking on the role of a classroom teacher this year.
I really enjoy being outside, in both Winter and Summer. I like to hike, snowshoe and fish. I also really enjoy listening to and playing music, although my listening skills are far superior to my playing skills.
I look forward to working with students and parents this year to help them get the most out of what the Winooski School District has to offer. Feel free to contact me using any of the above methods.

I’m Mr. Quinlan and I teach Bushintai-Do, the martial art practiced by Team Velocity. I own the Martial Way Self Defense Center, where we teach a number of other martial arts as well. I enjoy being outdoors, although this usually means working at home, where my wife and 2 children and I spend a lot of time working with our horses, dogs, cats and chickens, our gardens, and woods, where I cut firewood and attempt to raise timber trees. When I get the chance, I enjoy skiing, hiking, biking, music, watching my kids’ sports, and being a casual sports fan.
I like getting to know the students every year, and helping them make progress in the martial arts. I like the fact that everyone has a chance to be successful in the martial arts, if they are willing to work hard. The best way to reach me is by email.
