Hi! I am Jaimie Scavelli and I am one of the Prekindergarten teachers at Divine Providence School. This is my eighth year teaching at DP. I also have seven years of teaching experience at the Westchester Public School, in which I taught fourth grade.
I graduated from Elmhurst College where I received my BA in Elementary Education. While I taught at the Westchester Public Schools, I continued my education by getting my Masters Degree in Educational Leadership.
I have always wanted to become a teacher. There are many reasons why I love teaching, but the main reason is the joy you see in a child's face when they learn something new. I love seeing the progress the children make from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.
I have two children that attend DP. I am also a graduate of Divine Providence myself. It's so exciting to send my children and to teach in a school in which I also attended! I am impressed with the exceptional Catholic education that DP offers and I am proud to be a part of the staff.
Enjoy the 2019-2020 school year!
