Hello!
My name is Nina Minneci and I am looking forward to another wonderful year at Divine Providence School. I am the Middle School Social Studies (gr.6-8) and English (gr. 6&8) teacher. And I also teach 6th grade Religion. 

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 third year at Divine Providence. 

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