Math

To Ms. Abbatiello,  

I am so grateful for you. Thank you so much for always believing in me and pushing me to be the best I could be. I will never forget you or the lessons you have taught me. I will carry the knowledge across time but know that because of you and your encouragement, I can shine my light in the world and I will tell everyone that you lighted the lamp so I could lead the way.

To Ms. Battifarano,  

You made math understandable and fun to learn. I used to dread math and was bad at it as well, ever since I began your class you always treated your students with kindness and understanding. You have done so much for us all and despite me not talking a lot on meetings, I always feel happy and excited to learn in your class. I’m proud to be called your student.

Mrs. Gray is one of the best math teachers I ever had. Mrs. Gray taught me in 10th and 11th grade and I can honestly say that she plays a huge part in my passion for math. She has unique ways to teach her students and I still use her helpful tips today. Thank you, Mrs. Gray, for everything!

To Mrs. Kelly, 

Mrs. Kelly has been the best teacher ever. She understands us as teenagers and helps us better understand our work. She’s always there when you need her, whether it be a math problem or just advice in general. Mrs. Kelly goes above and beyond as an instructor as well as when she gives us well needed guidance. She helps us learn and gives us the best possible advice about college and helps with anything college-related and she better understands us and treats us like her own children. Mrs. Kelly has forever left a mark on my soul as the best educator I have had and the kindest soul possible ❤️ I love Mrs. Kelly and no one deserves the recognition more than her!!!
