Hi I'm Mrs. Ruggiero. I have been a teacher at Farmingdale School for 16 years. I wear many hats. You can find me teaching STEAM, library, and special education. My husband Matt and I got married November 21, 2020. We have a son, Leonardo, who is 4 and  a daughter, Maria, who is 17 months old.  I love to read, drink coffee, golf, spend time with family and have fun.

I’m looking forward to a productive, thriving, and fun year. I love teaching and will do everything (along with your support) to make this year a successful and happy one. 

This school year, 2026-2027, I will be teaching all STEAM classes Kindergarten through 8th grade. I will also be co-teaching 6th grade Science, 8th grade Reading, 7th Reading and will be in 4th grade Reading and 2nd Grade for a few periods.

Do not hesitate to ask me any questions you may have. Please feel free to call or email me at any time.
