Our Team
Suzanne DiVentura
Assistant Director
My passion for working with children began with a dream of becoming a teacher, and that passion continues to grow every day. I’ve been a proud member of the Cadence Academy family for over 14 years, where I cherish the opportunity to collaborate with families and staff to inspire a lifelong love of learning. Outside of work, my husband and I are the proud parents of three grown sons and share our home with three dogs and a cat. Last year I experienced the joy of becoming a grandmother for the first time—welcoming my granddaughter truly filled my heart. In my free time, I love cooking for my family and relaxing with a good movie.
Susan Gorgodian
Teacher of the Year
I have been teaching for over twenty years, and I’ve been with Cadence Academy since 2014. For the past two school years, I’ve been voted “Teacher of the Year.” Before joining the Cadence Academy Preschool Family, I taught grades ranging from Preschool to 7th grade, however, preschool is my favorite grade to teach. As a teacher, it’s my mission to instill a love for learning and I teach with passion so that my students develop a desire to become life-long learners. I received my bachelor’s degree in liberal arts from Rowan University and my master’s degree in educational leadership from Neumann University. I also hold both Elementary and Preschool Certifications with the State of New Jersey. Outside of school, I enjoy taking yoga classes, going to Phillies games, and spending time with my husband Wes and our two cats Timothy and Elizabeth.
