Pre-K
My name is Patricia DeRosa and I am one of the Pre-K teachers at Trinity Regional School. I am a graduate of Brooklyn College and have both my Bachelors and Masters degrees in Early Childhood Education. I grew up in Brooklyn and started my teaching career there at St. Jerome’s. I moved to Hauppauge where I live with my daughters and husband. I have been teaching for 29 years and this will be my 25th year at Trinity. During my time at Trinity Regional I have taught 3rd grade, Pre-K, N and Kindergarten. I am very happy and excited to be teaching Pre-K again this school year.

I am very excited to welcome you and your children to our Pre-K classroom! This year is going to be filled with so much excitement, learning and growth for your children. As a class, they will learn important key concepts such as letter recognition, letter sounds, religion, handwriting, colors, shapes and so much more. Trinity Regional’s Pre-K students will be following Fundations and HMH Math Expressions has their writing and math programs.
Most importantly, our students learn how to be friends and share. They are taught about Jesus’s love and how he invites us all to be his friend. As a class we each day we practice kindness and love towards each other. I look forward to learning and growing alongside your children!
