Welcome to 5^th grade!  My name is Mrs. Petrino and this is my 29^th year teaching in the Yonkers Public Schools.  I am really excited to get this year started and on its way! I have many fun ideas and things planned throughout the year.

To start off, I would like to tell you a little about myself.  I was born and raised in Yonkers. As a child, I attended the Yonkers Public schools.  In my 27 years of teaching, I have taught both elementary and high school. 

I would like to work closely with you.  I believe that frequent communication is vital.  If you ever need to get ahold of me, I can be reached via email.  My school email address npetrino@yonkerspublicschools.org. 

Please be sure to keep up with our classroom on a daily basis by visiting our class webpage on the William Boyce Thompson website, as well as signing up for Class Dojo text service. Information regarding both will be sent home soon.

I am looking forward to having a wonderful school year with both you and your child.
