Hello! My name is Mrs. Capizzi, and I will be your child’s 5th grade math teacher at Tatem Elementary School. I am so excited to be a Tatem Tiger! I live with my husband Joe, my son Henry, our 2 dogs Lucky and Sadie, and our cat Tommy.
I graduated from Penn State University where I earned a degree in Finance. I worked as a Finance Manager and Technology Consultant for many years before going back to school to pursue a teaching career. I earned my Master's Degree in Education and my Math Teaching Certificate from Chestnut Hill College, and my Mathematics Specialist Graduate Certificate from the University of Wisconsin. I taught elementary school for 2 years in Philadelphia, and then spent the last 17 years in Pennsauken. While at Pennsauken, I spent 9 years teaching 7th and 8th grade math, 3 years as a K-4 Instructional Math Coach, and 5 years as a Basic Skills Math Interventionist at the 4th/5th grade Intermediate School.
I love spending my free time with my family, friends, and pets. I also love the beach where I spend most of my summers! Some of my hobbies include reading, playing pickle ball, and being a soccer mom.
I am so excited for the school year, and I can't wait to work with your children. I look forward to an exciting year of learning for all of us!
Mrs. Capizzi
