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.
I am an artist, a writer, and a former Seattle Public School student. I loves making things with people of all ages and has taught art all around the world! In my free time, you can find me exploring with my family, working in my garden, or cheering loudly for my favorite teams, the OL Reign and Seattle Storm.
