Mrs. Cibotti

Welcome to kindergarten!   I am Mrs. Cibotti and this is my fifteenth year teaching at Reeds Ferry School.  I have spent most of that time teaching kindergarten, however, I also taught first grade for two years.  I really enjoy teaching kindergarten students how to read and write.  It is always fun to see how creative students are during our social studies units too.  I currently chair our school's Wellness Committee.  Prior to coming to Merrimack, I worked as a long-term substitute kindergarten teacher in both Nashua, NH and Westford, MA.  I was also a paraeducator in Newton, MA the semester after I finished graduate school.  I student taught in Boston, MA.  I love to travel and I have had the opportunity to participate in several teacher education/travel programs abroad, where I have learned and studied education in countries such as Belize, Ireland, and Germany.  I look forward to teaching your kindergartener this year.

Mrs. Papp

Hello! My name is Stacy Papp and this is my fourth year of teaching Kindergarten at Reeds Ferry School. Previously I taught Kindergarten in Missouri and Oklahoma for 11 years. My family moved to New Hampshire from Oklahoma four years ago and we love the New England way of life! The beautiful landscape, amazing fall colors and sparkling white snow are just a few of my favorite things about New England.
 
I enjoy teaching children new things and seeing their excitement when they accomplish difficult tasks. Partnering with parents is very important to me. Every parent knows their child best, so our partnership is crucial to helping my students succeed at school. The Kindergarten team at RFS is constantly collaborating and working together to ensure our students are getting the very best. I love being part of the RFS family as we create and innovate together to reach every child!

Hello! I am so excited to begin our school year! This will be my seventeenth year as an educator and my thirteenth year at RFS. I have taught students in grade K-4th throughout my teacher career.

I am absolutely loving my time as a kindergarten teacher! Watching your child learn and grow socially and academically is just amazing! I’m so lucky to have the best job ever!

My family includes my husband Tom, my son Andrew (8) and my daughter Natalie (6). We love spending time swimming, playing baseball, soccer, and kickball.
