Framingham State Graduation
This is my ninth year teaching and I am THRILLED to have the opportunity to teach in Medway. Here's a little bit about me! :)
My Education
I grew up in Wrentham, Massachusetts which is about 25 minutes from Medway. I graduated from King Philip Regional High School and attended Saint Anselm College where I earned my Bachelor's Degree of Arts in Elementary Education and a Spanish Minor. I also studied abroad in Seville, Spain for a semester. I completed my student teaching in a first grade classroom in the fall of 2016. In May of 2023 I completed my Master's Degree in Special Education at Framingham State University.
My Teaching Style
I love to have FUN! We will play many games and share lots of laughs, but we will also work hard! I also love to move around so we will have a lot of MOVEMENT breaks throughout the day to keep our brains alert and focused! We use Responsive Classroom to develop a set of classroom rules we all agree with. I hold each and every one of my students to high expectations, and I work with them all to achieve their goals!
I got married to Mr. Dipersia on April 19, 2025. This is my first year as Mrs. Dipersia!
I have two brothers, a mom, and a step dad. My older brother, Daniel, works as a computer programmer in Virginia. My younger brother, Michael, works as an IT Tech at another elementary school in Massachusetts. He's also a professional artist!
I have a little kitty at home! Her name is Quinn and she is quite a handful. You'll hear lots of stories about her adventures! 🐱
