Hello! My name is Jenn Stagnitta and I am so thrilled to be the Education Specialist for 6th Grade at High Tech Middle this year! This will be my 15th year teaching in the field of Special Education. I am originally from upstate New York, born and raised in Syracuse. I graduated from SUNY College at Brockport with a my bachelor’s degree in English as well as a certification in Inclusive Childhood Education in 2009. I continued my education at Roberts Wesleyan University, in Rochester, NY, to earn my masters degree in Literacy Education in 2013. I was the teacher of an SDC class for 6 years before deciding to move to San Diego, California in 2016. I have been an education specialist for 8 years now, primarily assigned to the Middle School population. In my free time I enjoy yoga, running, journaling, reading, and spending time with my family and friends! I am a proud mom to my 20 month year old son, Nikolas, and 3 year old kitty cat, Bynx. My husband and I enjoy taking our son to play at local parks and playgrounds regularly. I am looking forward to learning about each of my students this year and joining the High Tech community!
