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.
I am joining the math department after 9 years at Rainier Beach HS. Prior to becoming a math teacher I practiced as a structural engineer for 5 years.
I love to skateboard & snowboard, play soccer, and build/fix things out of wood and metal.
As a parent of an Seattle Public Schools student, I know how hectic things are this year for students and families. Please feel free to reach out to me anytime with and questions or concerns.
Hello,

Hi! I'm Joe Donohoe. I teach 9th grade Applied Molecular Biology and UW BIOL 100: Addiction and the Brain.
I got my BS in General Biology from UW, where I minored in Marine Biology and spent a few years after graduation researching fisheries science (save our salmon!). I then went back to UW to get a Master's in Teaching with a specialty in science education.

Hughes was a local attorney before beginning his career in education. Athletics has always been a huge focus, as Hughes played football at Univ. of San Diego and was a cheerleader at Univ. of New Mexico.
Hughes has focused on increasing participation for Eagle student athletes and in 2019 brought in two new sports: girls bowling and slowpitch softball.
