Kris Pflaging

My name is Mrs. Pflaging. I am from Wisconsin and received my B.S from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and M.S. from the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. I have taught overseas at 3 schools in Latin America and love to travel and dance. My family was a military family for 19 years and at one point moving 9 times in 12 years! I am a fierce Big 10/Wisconsin Badgers fan and enjoy watching ice hockey. Here at Hoffman Boston, I am the co-lead for sustainability and love to teach yoga, dance, STEM games, and learn about the environment. I lead a Green Team of students during recess to clean up trash around our school. I also enjoy helping the PTA with the school gardens.

Michael Shelton

My name is Mike Shelton, “Mr. S or Mr. Shelton,” as my students call me. I was born in the US, but have lived and taught in several other places around the world. My wife and I enjoy traveling and have been fortunate enough to have many adventures throughout the world, but still have many more we hope to experience. I have basic communication skills in Spanish, German, Bahasa Indonesian and a beginning understanding of ASL. I was a classroom teacher for many years before becoming a Health and PE teacher and joining the Hoffman Boston family.
