Dear Parents and Guardians,

My name is Emily Costantino and I am a senior at Bucknell University working

toward a bachelor of science in Elementary Education and a double major in French. Last
year I had the pleasure of working at Priestley Elementary with Mrs. Hepner's
kindergarten and Mrs. Bottiger's second grade classes and am looking forward to my time
with Mrs. Bottiger again from September 8- December 4! I am so excited to spend this
year working with you and your children, learning from each other and growing together
as this year progresses.
I am from Rhode Island, spent many years running track, including my freshman
year at Bucknell and have two small blue- eyed Australian Shepard puppies. Throughout
my years of high school and college I have had a lot of experience working with children
and their families. Previously, I have worked as a tennis camp counselor, and nanny of a
young boy and girl in third and eighth grade respectively for the last 3 years. I also was
a volunteer at the Danville Ronald MacDonald house this past year answering phones and
working closely with families to make their stay more comfortable at Geisinger Hospital.
I cannot wait to get to know your children and hope to meet you all at some point
throughout the semester!
Sincerely,
Emily Costantino
