Mrs. DeSantis – This is my ninth year as the technology teacher here at Polo Ridge and my 20th year teaching overall. I am passionate about teaching children how to safely and effectivly use technology as a tool in their education toolbox. I especially love our digital citizenship unit. While technology can be a good thing, children need to understand how to be safe and kind on-line. I addition to teaching tech classes, I enjoy being our school's web-master.
My family moved to Charlotte from the Chicago area in January of 2012. I have a son who is a senior at Ardrey Kell High School and another son in 8th grade at Jay M. Robinson. I graduated from Purdue University and began my career as a fourth grade classroom teacher before finding a love for technology. For ten years, I was the Technology/Media Specialist in a school district in the Chicago area before landing here at Polo Ridge.
