Dynamic Duo🌟: Jackson & Jordan Kullich! Some things just run in the family—like a love for carpentry. 🔨 When Jackson first explored different trades as a freshman, carpentry immediately stood out, becoming his top choice. Jordan shared the same passion, making it an easy decision to follow suit. Although they haven’t worked on projects side by side yet, their paths have still been intertwined. While juniors and seniors tackle outside projects, freshmen and sophomores focus on building their skills indoors. Even without shared projects, there’s something special about knowing your sibling is right there, learning alongside you in the same shop.⭐ For Jackson and Jordan, carpentry isn’t just about mastering the craft—it’s about growing within the trade together. Who knows? One day, they might tackle a project as a team, turning their shared passion into something truly remarkable!✨ #DynamicDuo #WorkHardTodayCounts

It's Faculty Friday! Featuring Social Studies Teacher David Sienko! What inspired you to become a teacher, and how has your journey been so far? My inspiration to become a teacher came from my 8th grade Social Studies teacher, Mrs. Henderson. I grew a love of history in her class and wanted to play a role in inspiring other kids to become interested in learning about history and maybe grow to love it as I have. I started as an on call Substitute Teacher which I did for a few years while looking for a full time teaching job. I was able to move up to a full time paraprofessional job that I did for a few years prior to getting hired here at Tri-County in 2022. Can you share a fun fact about yourself that your students might not know? I have a twin brother. What hobbies or activities do you enjoy outside of teaching? I enjoy camping and hiking the White Mountains in New Hampshire and going to live sporting events. What’s one piece of advice you would give to your students? Don't be afraid to fail. Failure is our greatest teacher. We learn about what we can and cannot do, but we also learn how to adapt and improve ourselves in order to succeed and become a better person overall.

It's Faculty Friday! Today we are featuring Math Teacher Steven Cadoret! What inspired you to become a teacher, and how has your journey been so far? It's funny because I never thought I would be a teacher. After graduating from Boston College with a degree in marketing, and having a year of an MBA program at Franklin Pierce University, I decided to chase the dream of playing professional baseball. I started subbing to make some extra money, and playing baseball in the summer. I really enjoyed teaching and working with kids, and this inspired me to get my teaching license. 15 years later, I'm still at it! The journey has been great so far. Can you share a fun fact about yourself that your students might not know? At Boston College, we played the Boston Red Sox in spring training. I pitched against the majority of the 2007 World Series starting lineup, including hall of famer David Ortiz. After college, I had the opportunity to live in Perth, Western Australia and Eindhoven, The Netherlands where I worked, coached and played baseball. What hobbies or activities do you enjoy outside of teaching? I love spending time with my family, and I enjoy watching and playing sports. I play baseball for an over 30 men's baseball team and have coached a summer collegiate baseball league for the past 10 years. What’s one piece of advice you would give to your students? Always give your best effort in anything that you do. Life is what you make of it!
