Catherine Silletti has been the principal of Rushmore since July of 2016. She is incredibly proud of the work she and her faculty have done to raise the level of excellence in education in our schools.

Beginning her career as an educator in 1993, she spent twenty years as a social studies teacher in the Bellmore-Merrick Central High School district. While a classroom teacher, she further developed her commitment to raising citizens of a global society as well as fostering the love for the pursuit of knowledge and understanding of the world in which we live.

Ms. Silletti then worked as an administrator in the Northport-East Northport UFSD at East Northport Middle School. Her many years of experience at the middle school level made her an ideal candidate to create an experience for our intermediate students that will prepare them well for middle school and high school.
