Hello!
My name is Nina Minneci and I am the Middle School Social Studies teacher for grades 5-8. In addition to social studies, I will also be teaching a few sections of technology and 8th grade religion. I am excited to begin my fifth year teaching. This will be my second year at Divine Providence. 

I am a Chicagoland native. I grew up in Naperville, Illinois and attended high school at Naperville Central. After high school, I attended college at Edinboro University of Pennsylvania and graduated with a Bachelors of Science in Education. From 2014-2017 I remained in Pennsylvania and taught in various schools, landing my first teaching placement in the Diocese of Erie. Then, in 2017 I decided to come back home to be closer to family and friends. And by divine providence, I was led to a job opening at DP, the school that my mom and aunts attended. I am thrilled to be part of this community and excited for my second year at Divine Providence. 

If you have any questions or concerns throughout the school year, feel free to send me an email at nminneci@divineprovidenceschool.org.
