My name is Mrs. Perkovich and I am one of the Kindergarten teachers here at Merritt Academy. This is my 6th year teaching. I am a graduate of Saginaw Valley State University with a degree in Elementary Education and Early Childhood General and Special Education. I am currently working on my masters in the K-12 Literacy Specialist program at SVSU. I am also a dance teacher at Dancer's Edge Studio. I recently got married to my husband, Chris. We have two fur babies; a multipoo named Zoey and an Australian shepherd named Piper. Mrs. Giannosa is one of my two sisters and she is a 1st grade teacher at Merritt Academy. In my free time, I love spending time with my family and friends, traveling, boating, and shopping at Marshall’s and TJ Maxx. I truly enjoy working at Merritt Academy with the awesome staff and students!
