Written By Editor on 9/7/22 | 9/7/22


ALBANY/SCHOHARIE -- Thirteen faculty and staff members joined the Career and Technical Education family for the start of the 2022-23 school year.

Most of the teachers, teaching assistants, counselors and security officers are new, while others are returning as full-time appointments and still others are transferring from other areas of Capital Region BOCES.

Among the new faculty members is Jennifer Quackenbush who joined BOCES after working as a UPK Head Start teacher in Amsterdam.

She said she is looking forward to watching her students learn and mature.

“I love watching students grow and change over the course of a school year.  I love creating a warm, nurturing, safe, and educational atmosphere to provide students a chance to obtain and foster their own love for learning. And I love learning from my students,” said Quackenbush, who also owned a daycare center for a decade.

Also joining the faculty is Diesel Tech teacher Kyle Harrington, who previously worked in diesel engine repair and is a graduate of a Career and Technical Education program in Vermont.

“I am excited to get going and meet new students,” he recently said while preparing his lab.
