Ms. Sasha

Favorite Color - Fuchsia Pink

Something You May Not Know - I was homeschooled until I was 9.

Hi, my name is Ms. Sasha and I am the school counselor at PS/IS 89.  I have been an employee at PS/IS 89 since 2007. I became a school counselor because I remember when I was a young girl how supportive my teachers were to me.  I would like to offer the same support and C.A.R.E. to my students, in hopes that they will fulfill their dreams.

I was born in Brooklyn, New York, but my entire family (including my husband) is from Dominican Republic.  I grew on the small island of St. Maarten with my grandmother until I was 9. I returned to New York then to continue my education.  My favorite subject in school was social studies and my least favorite was math.

I enjoy organizing fun activities that provide a learning experience for all.  I believe that our social and emotional awareness is just as important as our academic development.  This is why I decided to create the C.A.R.E. Bears.
