Wilcox Tech Administrator Named CTHSS Assistant Principal of the Year

Wilcox Tech's own Mr. Russell Duffy has been selected as the Assistant Principal of the Year for the Connecticut Technical High School System (CTHSS). Duffy was nominated by other administrators in the system and had to go through a selection process that included interviews with finalists. Fittingly, he began his career at Wilcox in 1988 as a Math teacher. In 1995 he was selected the Teacher of the Year at Wilcox for his kind and caring attitude he brought to the classroom. He then took on a administrator position at other schools in the system and then returned back to Wilcox four years ago.

According to his colleagues, Duffy is great with the students, a team player and very talented in developing student schedules. In fact, he has been called upon by the school system to lend his expertise in setting up schedules for classes. Richard Cavallaro, Principal of Wilcox Tech, said that Duffy is a key member of the staff. " He makes my life easier," said Cavallaro.

Duffy along with other CTHSS honorees will be recognized at the annual Celebration of Excellence held on Wednesday, October 17th. Congratulations, Mr. Duffy from the Wilcox Tech community.
