This is my third year as Principal of Walnut Street School. I have been at Walnut Street for the last eighteen years as a teacher and Assistant Principal. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 516-918-2201.
From the Desk of our Assistant Principal
Welcome back to another exciting school year! I am excited to be the Assistant Principal at Walnut Street School. I am looking forward to working with you and your children during this school year. Parents, you are the difference, get involved and stay involved, join the PTA!
I began my career as a substitute teacher. Since then I have taught 5th and 6th grade for fourteen years at California Avenue School. Most recently, I worked as a School Counselor at Uniondale High School for five years. I have earned my doctorate degree in Educational Leadership from Dowling College. I hold a master's degree in School Guidance Counseling from Long Island University, C.W. Post, and a master's degree in School Administration and Supervision from the College of New Rochelle. I earned a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and discovered my passion for education at State University of New York College at Old Westbury.
