Ms. Diane Dungca

My name is Diane Dungca and I want to thank you for the opportunity to teach your child this year. I will take this opportunity to share with you a bit about me and my teaching philosophy that will help guide us to maximize your child’s success.

I grew up in Oak Brook, IL and still live near that area. I earned a bachelor’s degree from Lewis University in education and a master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Concordia University. I have taught middle school science, reading and social studies for 9 years in Cicero, IL. Last year, I taught science at Julian Middle School, and now I have the privilege of teaching your child this year at Longfellow Elementary! 

My goal will be to understand your child’s needs and to help them learn responsible ways to realize their potential and develop academically and socially. As a teacher, I am committed to providing developmentally appropriate curriculum and using a range of engaging instructional strategies.

Communication is key - if you ever become aware of the class not meeting the needs of your child, please contact me right away so we can collaboratively seek a solution.  

The best way to reach me is through email at [email protected].
