Mabuhay! Welcome! My name is Enrico Abadesco (he/him). This will be my second year at Cleveland High School. Last year, I was a Special Education Instructional Assistant, and this year I am excited to continue supporting the Cleveland community as a Special Education Teacher. I will be teaching within 10th Grade Advisory and co-teaching 10th Grade Humanities with Tymmony Keegan.
Prior to joining Cleveland, I served as a youth worker for 7 years supporting K-12 youth programs in Auburn, Burien, White Center and south Seattle. Currently, I continue to organize in the Filipino community with Kabataan Alliance, a national alliance of Filipino youth and student organizations dedicated to serving our communities here and back home in the Philippines. I know we are moving into a year full of change. As an educator, I hope to continue learning and to uplift the voices and visions of our young leaders. I believe in their collective power, and that a new, beautiful and bright world is being created right now.
Amy is an artist, a writer, and a former Seattle Public School student. She loves making things with people of all ages and has taught art all around the world! In her free time, you can find her exploring with her family, working in her garden, or cheering loudly for her favorite teams, the OL Reign and Seattle Storm.
This will be my 3rd year at Cleveland. I feel lucky to have landed at such a great school with such supportive staff and administration. I teach two introduction to business courses and one marketing course. I earned my bachelors in Marketing, Business Administration from Colorado State University. I am a mixed race, first generation college graduate and take pride in creating a learning environment that students feel comfortable in. Outside of school, I like riding bikes, playing soccer, collecting vinyl and soaking up that summer sun.
