Floral Park Memorial High School World Language Teacher and Student Activities Director Gina D’Ammassa received the Teacher Fellowship for Graduate Study award at the Nassau Region PTA’s annual Principal’s and President’s Dinner on Dec. 5.

The award provides educators an opportunity to improve their teaching skills, update their professional knowledge and expand their professional perspectives. It was named to honor a “Master Teacher,” Richard Gazzola, for his many years of service on the New York State PTA Board of Directors and is presented to teachers who are pursuing advanced graduate study.

D’Ammassa will apply the award toward the instructional leadership doctoral program at St. John’s University, in which she is currently enrolled.
