My name is Debbie Ritz and I am the MAX Teacher. I am a New York State certified teacher, a graduate of the University of Buffalo and SUNY Brockport. My husband, Al, and I live in Irondequoit, where we have raised our daughter, Anne.
Over the years I have had the wonderful privilege of teaching in the Catholic Schools of Rochester. As a primary teacher of both First and Second Graders, I discovered the joy of introducing a world of story books to my students. As I watched them grow as readers and writers, my excitement for discovering new titles and revisiting old favorites grew along with them.
I have also experienced the joy of watching the little ones grow and following them up to the “big” grades, as I moved along with them to the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Grades, (most recently as their MATH Teacher). There is never a dull moment – and I have enjoyed every one!
