Hello!  My name is Sarah Dininny, and I am a kindergarten teacher at Richland Elementary. I am so proud to be teaching at my alma mater! I graduated from Richland in 2008.  I went to Pitt-Johnstown and earned my Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education in 2012.  I earned my Master’s degree in Early Childhood Education from Clarion University in 2017. This will be my twelfth year of my teaching career.  I absolutely love my job and my students!

I am SO excited to get to know your child this school year!  We will have a lot of fun in kindergarten. I know you will be amazed at the academic, social, and personal growth you will see in your child!  We will work hard to become good readers and writers by the end of the year.  We will also learn various concepts in Math, Science, and Social Studies.  I believe that children learn best in a classroom community that is nurturing, warm, and inviting, and I always want my students to feel safe and happy in their educational environment.  I strive to make every child feel special and supported.  I know we will have a wonderful year! :)

Please feel free to e-mail me with any questions or concerns.  Thank you!  #RamPride
