Meet Mrs. Cruz

I have been teaching for 17 wonderful years with the last 14 years teaching at Bloomingdale Avenue School. I received my undergraduate degree in computer science from Villanova University. After graduation I spent 7 years working in technology on Wall Street. I always had a passion for teaching and working with kids and sought out opportunities to pursue my passion. I spent many years volunteering in the NYC public schools before earning my masters degree from Pace University in Elementary Education. I left my corporate job in 2001 and followed my dreams to be a teacher. I have truly found my calling. Cranford is not only the town in which I teach but for the past 16 years I have called it home with my husband and two kids., Matteo and Thalia and our dog, Cupcake.
