About me
Hello!
My name is Mrs. Rinaldi and I am your Math 8, and Integrated 1 teacher this year at New Brighton Middle School! This marks my 4th year as a teacher here, and I am a proud New Brighton Alumni! I was born and raised in Santa Cruz and I live with my seven year old daughter Livia, my husband, Gino, and my two kitties Bonnee and Clyde. Upon graduation from Harbor High, I received my Associate's Degree from Cabrillo College and my Bachelor's Degree in Secondary Mathematics from CSUMB. While completing my schooling, I worked as a preschool teacher at Rocking Horse Ranch for about 10 years. I continued my education at University of Southern California where I received my Masters in Teaching with a math emphasis. I became a teacher because I have always enjoyed mathematics and I want to share my love for the subject with our future leaders (you!). Teaching is something I am very passionate about and I can't wait to get to know every single one of you.
