About Our Fifth Grade Teachers
Mr. Chris Fidotta Hey Bullfrogs! I'm Chris Fidotta, this will be my 5th year at GSCES and 8th year in MCPS. I am originally from New York. I graduated from SUNY Cortland with a degree in Elementary Education. When I am not teaching I enjoy playing hockey, watching football, and spending time with family and friends. |

I received my Bachelor's degree at University of South Florida. I am also certified in ESOL with a Gifted endorsement. I'm currently continuing my education by earning a Master's degree in Educational Leadership at Hood College. I previously taught at Wilson Wims Elementary School in Clarksburg. I have taught 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade during my career. My husband and I live in Clarksburg MD with my twin daughters, Jasmine & Hailey, and our son, Alex. When I am not at school I enjoy traveling, hiking, concerts, and spending time with my family. |
