Mrs. Perrotti received her New Hampshire Early Childhood Lead Teaching Certificate in 2003 and also holds a Child Development Associate National Credential. She is an active member of the National Association for the Education of Young Children and is involved in local community efforts to assist children with behavioral and learning challenges. She participates regularly in community Preschool Directors meetings and seminars to keep current with the ever-changing field of Early Childhood Education and remains an advocate for children.
When she is not caring for the teachers, students, and parents at the Academy, Mrs. Perrotti spends time with her husband, adult children, and their two, dogs. She is an avid reader and enjoys yoga, traveling and family game nights.
