Hello STRS Families,

I am excited about starting my third year at STRS.  I have gotten to know the students and I am looking forward to having another year of learning and fun!

I graduated with a Bachelor’s of Science in Biology from the Richard Stockton College of New Jersey.  I worked as a microbiologist in both, the biotech and pharmaceutical industries for 10 years.  I try to instill what I learned in industry within the classroom.  I took time off from work to raise my two children, a daughter who is 14 (a freshman at PVI - yikes!) and a son who is 12 (7^th grade). 

I taught the Blackwood chapter of the STEM scouts for a few years before it was cancelled due to COVID.  I truly missed being in the classroom for those two COVID years.  I was thrilled to join STRS and be back in to teaching.  I enjoy teaching concepts, having informative discussions, and having time to do hands-on lab work with the students.  I am always looking for fun, new ways to get the students' hands-on opportunities.  Most importantly, I want the students to stay engaged and maybe even have some fun!

Have a great day!

Kindest Regards,

Stacey Jefferson Iovacchino
