Hello, welcome to First Grade.  I am Lucy Rovegno and I have been teaching for 42 years.  I am as excited about teaching today as I was 42 years ago. I attended Queens University in Charlotte, North Carolina and received a BA in Early Childhood Education. I taught the Pre k3-and Prek 4-year-olds  for 19 years, taught 2nd grade for 17 years, 3rd grade for a year,6th grade for a year, and have taught  1st Grade at Divine Mercy Academy for 2years. I also taught Special Reading and Math at Rockaway Township for 4 years.

My Goal as a teacher is to foster a love of the Catholic Faith, to challenge each child academically, and to instill a sense of service for others in the world. The class motto for First Grade is taken from Mother Teresa - "Do small things with great love".
