Hi! My name is Nikki Peluso. I have been a teacher in the DOE for about 9 years. This is my sixth year teaching at Queens Explorers, where I have taught Kindergarten my first year, 2nd Grade for three years, and now 3rd Grade with Ms. Pannell, Mrs. Acevedo and Mrs. Fonseca for the second year in a row! I love being a teacher because it gives me the opportunity to have a positive impact on our students on a daily basis and every day presents an opportunity to make a difference. I love being a part of the QE family, and look forward to what every school year and new group of students has to bring!

When I am not teaching, I enjoy hanging out with my two boys, Travis who is 9 and Jaxson who is 2. We spend a lot of time playing games, watching sports, and we love going on fun adventures, whether it is to the zoo, aquarium, or simply going to the park. I am excited and looking forward to the adventures that this school year is going to bring us!
