Welcome to 3rd Grade!
All About Miss Phelps
Hi, I’m Miss Phelps! I’m so excited for another great school year at Hamilton! This will be my fourth year teaching third grade and my seventh year teaching in Bridgewater. Third grade is so much fun, especially because two of my favorite subjects, reading and social studies, cover some super interesting topics. I’m also so lucky to share our classroom with Mrs. V, who is creative, caring, and incredibly knowledgeable. We’re going to make a great team!
I earned my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees from The College of New Jersey, and I’m always taking classes and learning new things so I can bring fresh ideas to our classroom. I grew up in Hillsborough, NJ, and now live in Jersey City with my two cats, Ruby and Penny. This school year will be extra special because it will be my last group of students to call me Miss Phelps! 💍
Outside of school, my fiancé and I love spending time at the beach, trying new restaurants, going to concerts, and taking what is probably an unreasonable number of pictures of our cats. 😂 My favorite hobbies are playing softball and tennis, reading, and spending time with the people (and pets!) I love. I can’t wait to get to know all of you and make lots of great memories together this year!
This year is going to be awesome!
Love,
Miss Phelps

All About Mrs. Vinciguerra
My name is Mrs. Vinciguerra, and I couldn't be more excited to be partnering with Miss Phelps to be your teacher this year! This will be my 22nd year teaching in Bridgewater- how time flies when you're having fun 🙂
Here are some fun facts about me! I am a graduate of Elon University in North Carolina and attended the Rutgers Graduate School for further education to earn my Early Education (P-3), Elementary Education (K-5), and Special Education certifications.
When I am not with my school family, I am home spending time with my husband Brian, 16-year-old daughter Daine, 12-year-old son Leigh, and mini-golden doodle, Riley. I grew up and currently reside in Readington Township, so it is super fun bumping into friends from my childhood all the time! My hobbies include hiking and boating with my family, organizing, dancing, and working out!
I really look forward to learning with you!
Love,
Mrs. Vinciguerra
