All About Miss DelVecchio

    Hi! My name is Miss DelVecchio and I am very pleased to be your teacher this year! I am thrilled to be a part of the West Irondequoit staff at Rogers Middle School. This will be my third year teaching at Rogers, and I am lucky to work with such wonderful students and staff each and every day!

    I recently completed my Master's degree in Literacy Education from SUNY Brockport. Therefore, I am very eager to teach 5th grade Core this year.   I also have my Bachelor's Degree and NYS certification in Childhood Education from SUNY Brockport. This means that I am certified to teach grades 1-6.

    Fifth grade is a challenging year full of transitions. It is very different from fourth grade because you now have the opportunity to travel from class to class. Whether you are in my class for Core or Social Studies you will find that our class is very structured, which allows for positive and engaging learning activities to occur. If at any time throughout the school year you need any extra support please do not hesitate to ask! I look forward to a very exciting year together.

..Just a little bit more

I used to live in Fort Worth, Texas where I went to school until I was in the third grade. My grandparents, aunt/uncle, and cousins still live down there.

Before becoming a teacher I was a cake decorator at Sam's Club for six years, and LOVED it! I enjoyed cake decorating because it was something that I had to work hard for. Every day at work I would practice icing and decorating cakes until I had enough experience to create custom cake orders. Making children and adults smile because of a cake I created was one of the most rewarding aspects of my job!

I also LOVE to watch hockey. So, you will most likely see me at the Amerks games during hockey season. I also enjoy going to see my other favorite hockey team the Buffalo Sabres. Every year, I try to go to a few home games, and I had the opportunity to see the Sabres at their 1st play-off game two years ago! Hopefully this year they will bring home the Stanley Cup!

I also enjoy spending my summers visiting different places. This summer I was able to visit Orlando, Florida! We spent our whole vacation in Disney experiencing the different resorts down there. We even spent a whole day at a place called, Discovery Cove. There, we were able to swim and feed the dolphins and snorkel with sting rays and other exotic fish!

Here we are with Natalie the dolphin we spent time with that morning

In the past few years I have also been to Aruba, St. Lucia, and New York City. Last summer I also spent some time at Stony Brook State Park on hiking trails.

Look closely and you can see the Statue of Liberty from the

top of the Empire State Building.

This is a view from Battery Park!

I had to take a picture with the apple in Times Square
