Sixth Grade

Meet Mrs. Tantardino

Mrs. Tantardino became a teacher because she wanted to help students who struggled. She also loves students! Mrs. Tantardino finds joy in the confidence that her students gain when they recognize their own progress and growth.

Mrs. Tantardino has taught kindergarten through twelfth grade, but fifth grade is her absolute favorite. She says that fifth graders are sweet and kind; they also love jokes and appreciate her goofiness.  In her class, Mrs. Tantardino loves sharing the books Where the Red Fern Grows and Spooky Hour with her students.

When Mrs. Tantardino is away from CES, she loves to spend time with her family and her beast, Cooper. She also enjoys reading, swimming, and boating.  Mrs. Tantardino dreams of tacos and traveling to Turks and Caicos Islands where she can savor the beautiful beaches and water. Mrs. Tantardino also has the goal of taking pictures that she is actually in during the upcoming school year.
