Making Industry Connections! 🎓
Thanks to Soundscape Merchandise in Belchertown, GG Inks in South Hadley, and The Printshop at Soccer City in Wilbraham for allowing our 1st and 2nd year Graphic Communication students the opportunity to tour their shops! It was great to see professional print operations in action, make valuable industry connections, and connect classroom curriculum with real-world applications! It was an awesome day of “on-the-job-learning!”

It’s Been an honor! 🎓⚽️🥳

After 32 incredible years at Chicopee High School, I have made the decision to retire from teaching Graphic Communication effective October 2026..

It is difficult to put into words what this journey has meant to me. I have had the privilege of teaching thousands of students, watching them grow into talented professionals, dedicated parents, community leaders, and outstanding human beings. The relationships and memories we created together will stay with me forever.

I am deeply grateful to the many student-athletes I had the honor of coaching over the years. The lessons learned on the soccer field, track, and in competition were every bit as meaningful as those taught in the classroom. Your hard work, commitment, and character made coaching one of the most rewarding parts of my career.

Thank you to the administrators, colleagues, staff, parents, and community members who supported me throughout these three decades. Your encouragement, friendship, and dedication to our students helped make Chicopee High School a special place to work and learn.

As I prepare to retire, Chicopee High School will be seeking a new Graphic Communication instructor to continue this outstanding program. If you know someone with experience or interest in graphic communications, screen printing, embroidery, Laser Engraving, visual media, or career and technical education who may be interested in this opportunity, please reach out to me. I would greatly appreciate your help in finding the next person to inspire and prepare future generations of students.

I leave Chicopee High School with a heart full of gratitude, countless memories, and tremendous pride in what we have accomplished together.

Once a Pacer, always a Pacer.

Thank you for an unforgettable 32 years.

I’d like to know who printed these massive country flags! 😳⚽️🏆
