Mrs. Laura Miscioscia

Hi! My name is Mrs. Laura Miscioscia, I am the mother of 5 children.  Three are grown up and on their own with awesome jobs, and two still in school (Bishop Shanahan and Penn State).  I have always been involved in my children’s school, my parish (St. Basils) and my community; from homeroom mom, school president, brownie leader, Odyssey of the Mind Coach, School Cafeteria manager, Teacher’s Aide, and substitute teacher.  I love being around the faith and the energy of our Catholic schools.

Professional Experience:

• B.S. in Mathematics and Secondary Education
  • Cabrini College
• Teacher
  • St. Maria Goretti School
  • Mother of Divine Providence School
• Teacher’s Aide & Substitute Teacher
  • St. Basil the Great School
  • St. Elizabeth School
• PREP & VBS Catechist

Educational Philosophy: I believe that children learn best when they are loved and engaged.  I believe in an active classroom, where students feel comfortable and understood.  My classrooms are full of activity and chatter.  I believe students need to be comfortable enough to try and get some things wrong, make some mistakes and then, they learn and succeed.
