Hi everyone! My name is Mrs. Diorio & WELCOME to 2nd grade! This is my fifth year teaching & my first year with my new last name. I got married this summer & spent my first four years at Denbo-Crichton as Ms. Hodge!

I attended the University of Tennessee where I got my bachelors degree in special education. I stayed at UT for one more year to complete a full-year internship and to get my masters degree in special education! My goal is to create a classroom that feels like home, promotes a love for learning, and is incredibly inclusive. I will always encourage my students to be independent and to express themselves as much as possible. 

Aside from teaching, I love being with my family, friends, and my dog, Archie. A few of my other favorite things include cheering on the Tennessee Vols and going to the beach! If you ever have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out over email or Dojo.
