Fifth & Sixth Grade Math

Teacher InformationMy name is Mrs. Tennant and this is my seventh year teaching at Holy Family School. I teach math to both 5th and 6th grade and science to 5th grade. I grew up in Lindenhurst, attended Our Lady of Perpetual Help Elementary School, and attended St. John the Baptist High School in West Islip. From there, I began my college career at Saint Mary’s College in Notre Dame, Indiana. I studied elementary and early childhood education and graduated with my Bachelor’s degree in 2010. After graduation, I moved to Chicago for 3 years where I taught preschool at St. John Berchmans School in Logan Square, Illinois. While teaching, I attended National Louis University in Chicago to receive my Master’s degree in Technology of Education. I was married to my husband Patrick in June of 2012 on Long Island. One year later, we moved home to Long Island to be closer to family and friends. In August of 2013, I had my first son, Colin. In 2014, I became a preschool teacher at a daycare in West Babylon and quickly moved up to the director position. After being at that job for a year, I became a stay at home mom again to my second son, Theodore. I went back to teaching for a few years and recently had my third boy, Rory in December 2022. I will be taking about 3 months off to spend time with him.Besides teaching and being a mom to three crazy boys, I am also a licensed real estate agent and work alongside my dad at Century 21 AA Realty in Lindenhurst. I received my real estate license in October of 2015 and have been enjoying this ‘side job’ very much! In 2016, I decided to go back to teaching and I was grateful to have been offered a job at Holy Family. My older two sons attend Holy Family! Colin is in 4th grade and Theo is in 2nd grade. I have had a very enjoyable 6.5 years and I look forward to the coming months and years at Holy Family!Favorite Saint?

Contact Mrs. Tennant
Welcome to 5th and 6th grade at Holy Family School! I am excited to have your child in my class and cannot wait to teach them this year! I look forward to creating an honest, open, helpful and caring relationship with your child, but I do believe that one of the most important relationships is that between a parent and teacher. If we can positively interact and easily communicate with each other, your child will be motivated to succeed. In addition to email, I use the Remind App and the class page to communicate with parents. I will also make sure your child is confident in his or her ability to navigate and understand Google Classroom, which is our main learning platform. Feel free to email me with any questions you may have. Thank you! -
