About Me

My name is Marianna Zimbardo, and I have been a member of the CCSC Science Department since the 2007-2008 school year. This year I will be teaching Principles of Science 2 for 8th grade, and Advanced Biology for 11th grade.

I attended Villanova University where I earned my Bachelor's Degree in Biology, and later Tufts University where I earned my Master's Degree in Secondary Science Education. I love talking to my students about new discoveries in science and how current events impact their lives. All of my classes are hands-on, with several labs and activities that illustrate the subject matter.

I grew up in Wallingford, CT and have one younger sister who is a music teacher in western MA.  In my spare time, I enjoy shopping, reading, cooking, and running.
