Hi! My Name is Mrs. Erin DiRenzo! I live in Leonardtown with my husband, Jeff, children, Addy and Jack. I am thrilled to be your child’s principal! The 2023-2024 school year will be my 22nd year working in the Saint Mary’s County Public School System. I have served as a classroom teacher, instructional resource teacher, and assistant principal. I grew up in Bethlehem, PA. I am the oldest of 4 children. I have 2 brothers and 1 sister. My dad is a retired special education teacher. My mom just retired after 35 years in education. Most of my family still live in PA and I enjoy going to visit them when I can. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education from Indiana University of PA. I earned my Master’s Degree in Educational Leadership and Human Resources from Towson University.
I am so honored to be your principal and look forward to making this the best year ever!
