Rowena+G

Hi, my name is Rowena Gianfredi, and I've been a Business Educator at Leonia High School since 1981. I teach four years of marketing electives to freshmen through seniors. They include //Intro to Marketing, Marketing Strategies// (Advertising, Pricing, Branding), //Entrepreneurship// and //Sports and Entertainment Marketing.// I am so excited for the fall, because I just arranged a marketing seminar for my Sports/Ent class. They will tour Yankee Stadium, speak with members of their marketing and sales departments, visit Monument Park and the Yankee Museum and then attend the Yankees/Tampa Bay Rays game.
