Back To School Night- September 22, 2022 (6:00-8:00 P.M.)
HIgh School Awareness Day 9-10

Welcome Back! Hope everyone had a wonderful summer. Let's kick off the new year to a great beginning and recharge our minds to become more knowledgeable, utilize your unique talents and gifts, and take risks and go out of the box to learn something new that may peak your interest. I'm looking forward to working with the students/families in every capacity and as always my door is open at any time so just pop on in at any time.

Hello! My name is Dayna Panarello and I am the  guidance counselor (second year) here at the St. Ann School. Prior to this I was a substitute teacher for art and music  as well as filled in for teacher's when needed and oversaw lesson plans. I'm so blessed to be a part of the St. Ann school. Could not ask for a better team to work with. 

I received an undergraduate degree in Elementary Education from the University of Hartford and a Master's degree in Social Work from Monmouth University. Following graduation I worked as a private babysitter for teacher's kids, substituted in the Ewing Public School District and then landed a role as a paraprofessional at the Lore Elementary School in Ewing, NJ...  Lastly, I was a school social worker/case manager at the South Amboy Elementary School where I oversaw students from pre-school-fourth grade.

I've been married for 16 years and have one daughter, (15) who is a sophomore at Notre Dame High School in Lawerenceville. We are also owners of a German Shepherd and two rabbits. In my spare time I enjoy reading, exercising, baking, going to the beach, traveling and spending quality time with friends and family.

From a young age I knew that I wanted to work with children and their families in a school-based environment where I'm able to ensure that ALL students are receiving a great educational, social and emotional experience as well as meeting all their individual unique needs to make them successful in the years to follow.

It is a great joy to watch them grow and develop their own independent talents and gifts that have been instilled upon them.   I am very excited to be a part of the St. Ann School Community. My door is always open so please reach out if you have any questions/concerns and I'll do my best to assist you in any way that I can. Also, encourage your children to come and visit as well whenever they need.
