The Family Foundation School Staff Member Dawne Possemoto’s Daughter Profiled in The Sunday Times

What do NBC’s “The Office,” Lackawanna College, and home-made handbags have in common? The answer is Jackson Township local Meegan Possemato. Meegan is the daughter of FFS staff Dawn Possemato. Because of her many aspirations, she was profiled by The Sunday Times in its November 29 issue.

Possemato graduated from the State University of New York at Oneonta where she majored in English. She currently spreads her knowledge by teaching at Lackawanna College’s New Milford Center. She also helps organize many events at Lackawanna, such as bike tours through local trails.

Besides being a teacher, Possemato works as manager of business development for an office supply company, One Point. She is renowned for her efforts to get the company mentioned in one way or another on NBC’s Scranton-set comedy “The Office.” She loves the show and hopes One Point can eventually make an appearance on it as a nemesis to the show’s Dunder Mifflin Paper Co.

During her free time, Possemato makes and sells her own handbags, called Meegan Bags. Her small enterprise, usually displayed at local craft shows, carries the slogan “Crafted from Vintage, Recycled and Agonized-over Materials.” She generally uses unwanted materials, taking them from ready for the dumpster to ready for the runway.
