Profile
Regina Mistretta, Associate Professor and
Program Coordinator in The School of Education, holds a
B.S., M.S., and Ed.D. in Mathematics Education. She strives
to help forward the field through teaching, research, and service
efforts that address the needs of students, teachers,
administrators, and parents. Her research focuses on
pedagogical practices for teaching mathematics, parent-child
collaborations in mathematics, and teacher preparation/professional
development program models.
Federally and privately funded initiatives have allowed her to

teachers, administrators, and multi-cultural school children and
their families throughout the metropolitan area. Her most
recent efforts involve the design and implementation of the
Internship Placement Project on the Staten Island campus and her
collaboration with the Curriculum Leadership Team of the Institute
for Catholic Schools.
