Amy Dichristina

Amy DiChristina joined the Park community as Head of Middle School in July 2022. After moving to New York City in 2006, Amy began her career as a high school Social Studies teacher in Brooklyn, NY, working primarily in the Williamsburg and Bushwick neighborhoods. In 2013 she was a founding staff member at MESA Charter High School and eventually became their Director of School Culture. In 2016, the opportunity arose for her to work for The Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History as the Project Manager for the Hamilton Education Program. For 4 years she was able to travel across the country working with teachers and school districts from over 20+ cities, bringing the musical Hamilton to life for students in Title I high schools.

In 2020, Amy returned to her hometown of Buffalo and is absolutely thrilled to be joining the team at Park, as she takes on the role of Head of Middle School. She holds a B.S. in Social Studies Secondary Education from SUNY Fredonia and an M.A. in Urban Education with a focus on Social Studies from Long Island University, Brooklyn.
