All About Mrs. Pennetti
(Formerly Miss Jacobs )
Welcome to 3rd Grade!
I am so excited to be your third grade teacher!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is my sixth year teaching at Sussex Avenue School!
I grew up in Bergen County, New Jersey. In high school, I was captain of my swim team and cheerleading team. It was important for me to stay active in-addition to focusing on my academics. I attended Rider University where I majored in both Elementary Education, Psychology, and minored in Special Education. I have always had a passion to teach. My goal is to make a difference and to show my students that they can accomplish and achieve their goals with hardwork and perseverance.
I had worked as a Head Lifeguard at my town pool for over 13 summers. In addition to lifeguarding, I also provided private swim lessons during the summer and continued to do so. I love being outdoors whether it's at the pool, beach, or hiking. In my free time, I love spending time with my family, friends, and my dog, Shayna! I also have an interest in crafting and photography. I enjoy capturing amazing views as well as memories. I also enjoy traveling. In 2014, I had the opportunity to travel to Istanbul, London, and Israel. It was such an incredible experience. I learned so much by visiting these different countries and traveling. In 2018, I traveled to Italy on my honeymoon. I toured through Rome, Florence, Sorrento, Capri, Pompeii, and hiked Mount Vesuvius! Most recently, I traveled to Sintra, Portugal. I hope to continue traveling and would love to visit more places outside of the United States.
I am truly looking forward to a wonderful school year! We will work together to have a successful and exciting 3rd grade experience!
