HCA is blessed to have Mrs. D’Alessandro spearheading learning in the subjects of math, science and technology. Mrs. D’Alessandro began teaching at HCA in 2009 but had her first year in 1997 in Chicago Public Schools and then prior to coming to HCA spent many years in U-46 at Larsen Middle School. She is constantly reading and learning to better her craft to impact the students at HCA for Christ. Her greatest achievement so far here at HCA was instituting our math curriculum change to Singapore Math in 2011-12.  She has seen vast improvement in HCA student’s ability to understand and score high in math assessments.

Mrs. D’Alessandro has been married to Joe since 1994 and they have four children. Joey graduated in 2017 and Patrick, Maggie and Becca are current students at HCA.  Her favorite bible verse is Hebrews 10:23 “Let us hold fast to the confessions of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful.”
