Welcome Parents and Students!!
Welcome to Ms. Meribeth DeBarto's Sixth Grade Language Arts. This is my 33rd year of teaching and my 27th year at Conemaugh Township. I am also a proud 1986 graduate. I studied at Indiana University of Pennsylvania and earned my Elementary Education degree from the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown. In 2001, I earned my Master's Degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Gannon University.
A little bit about Ms. DeBarto-
My husband Joe Stringent and I are the parents of two amazing boys, Mickey and Jack. Mickey has a degree in Safety, Health, and Environmental Applied Sciences. He also manages Jim and Jimmies. Mickey has recently started back to school to become an English teacher. Jack also has a degree in Safety, Health, and Environmental Applied Sciences. He is a Manufacturing Safety Supervisor at Pace Industries.
We are always on the go! We love to travel (especially to the beach) and spend time together as a family. We enjoy watching and supporting Penn State and the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Pittsburgh Penguins are also one of our favorite teams. We have had the good fortune to "kiss" The Stanley Cup four times! Oma (my mother), Gus (our Fox Red Lab), and Gus's mom Maggie (a Fox Red Lab we adopted a few years ago ) are our other family members (and I can't forget Kiara!). Jack and his fiancée Jordan have Scarlett (another Fox Red Lab), and Mickey is the proud owner of Dexter, a Goldendoodle.
During my quiet time, I LOVE to settle down with a good book (typically an autobiography or a biography).
All students have access to Google Classroom. Students may email me through Gmail.
We are excited to welcome our student teacher, Isabella Wingard, who will be with us until December! Currently studying Middle School English at the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown (UPJ), Isabella brings a fresh perspective and enthusiasm for teaching. Her passion for literature and language arts is evident, and she is eager to engage our students in meaningful learning experiences. During her time here, she will collaborate with our team to enhance classroom activities and support student growth. Please join us in giving her a warm welcome!
HMH-Ed is the new reading series. Students may access it through the Clever app.
