2024-2025
Hi! My name is Mrs. Melissa Quaranto. I grew up in a military family and so moved around a lot growing up – attending 7 different schools from preschool to 12th grade! I am a graduate of Laney High School and UNC Wilmington. This will be my third year teaching first grade at St. Mark Catholic School. Previously, I taught kindergarten and first grade for 7 years in New Hanover County Schools. I then served as Director of Youth Ministry at St. Mark Catholic Church for 7 years. When my two oldest kiddos came to St. Mark, I decided to join them and go back to the classroom! My husband and I celebrate our 12th wedding anniversary this year. We have three children – ages 4, 7, and 9. We also have a hound dog named Juno and 17 year old cat named Mae. I am so excited to spend this year with you all!
Hi! My name is Abigail DiCenzo. I am the Assistant Teacher in your child's first grade class. I have been teaching at St. Mark Catholic School for over ten years. I am from Orange County, California. My husband and I have been married for 27 years in September! We have two children who are both graduates of St. Mark. I love to spend my free time at the beach. I look forward to teaching your children this year!
