Greeting Ramsey Rams! My name is John Gallagher, and I teach 6th grade English at Ramsey. I love working at Ramsey and am so excited to welcome you into my classroom, where you can be your best self as we push our thinking to new heights! 

The 2020-2021 school year is my third year teaching English/Language Arts at Ramsey Middle School, and my fourth year as a teacher. I have previously taught in Richfield, Minneapolis, and I also spent a little time as a student teacher at Ramsey in the French Immersion classes! 

I also love to coach sports, as in the past I have coached the distance runners for Central High School's Track team, and volleyball at Ramsey! I ran Track & Field and Cross Country at Grinnell College, where my special event was the hurdles--run a lap and jump ten times! I also love to play soccer, and am a huge soccer fan in general, but especially Minnesota United! Outside of sports, I love to spend time with friends, exploring the Twin Cities, eating ice cream, and visiting my family in Seattle, where I grew up. 

If you need to reach me, there are a couple of ways you can do this!
