Angela Ribeiro, BMS English teacher

​Ms. Ribeiro was born in March and her hometown is Mattapoisett, MA.  She went to college at Florida State University.
Favorite teacher? I had so many great teachers growing up, but my favorite was my fourth grade teacher, Ms. Piva. She had such a good sense of humor, and took the time to get to know the students. I remember that she created a raffle to win a Gizmo doll (from the Gremlins movie), and I won. I won’t ever forget how excited I was when my name was pulled from the container.
If you were not in education what other profession would you like to attempt?   I would love to work on a cruise ship as a receptionist.  I could travel the world, and get to know a lot of new people.
Do you have pets?   2 cats
Favorite Color?  Navy blue
Favorite Quote or Saying? "Be the change that you wish to see in the world" - Mahatma Gandhi
Where is the farthest place you have ever traveled? Norway
Favorite Food? Pizza
Hobbies or Activities/Organizations you are active in? My family volunteers once a month at Mercy Meals to feed needy families breakfast.  I love volunteering with my 12 year old and 16 year old because sometimes the perceptions that we have of people aren’t always correct.  There is so much good out there if you look for it.  I also love paddle boarding, NKOTB, traveling, and watching movies.
