Hello students and families! My name is Ms. Tusa and I am the new Math, Science, Health and Religion teacher for fourth grade at Saint Agnes Cathedral School. I am so excited to be a part of the Saint Agnes community and am looking forward to meeting you all.
I attended Adelphi University for graduate school, earning my Master's Degree in Childhood Education and Special Education. I am eager to begin my career in a Catholic school, having attended Catholic school for elementary school, middle school and high school.
I am excited for a knowledgeable and fun school year! Feel free to contact me with any questions, comments or concerns you may have!
