Hey! I'm Ms. Toledo!
Hey! I'm Ms. Toledo!
I am so excited to be one of your 4th grade teachers this year! This will be my 6th year teaching at Washington School. Before this year I taught 5th grade and loved it! I believe that learning can be both fun and rigorous! I want all my students to feel supported, celebrated, and valued. I love to learn and hope to pass on that joy of learning to every student in my classroom. I love working with technology and creating engaging lessons that make learning meaningful and authentic. Learn more about me below!

Hello! I'm Ms. DiGiovanni!
I am so excited to be one of your 4th grade teachers this year! This will be my 13th year teaching special education at Washington School. Teaching, for me, is all about creating a place where every student feels seen and supported. I'm passionate about helping them uncover their unique strengths and finding joy in learning. I want each student to walk away feeling proud of who they are and excited about what they can accomplish. Learn more about me below!
