Cardinal CSD Science Teacher, Mr. C

posted August 30, 2022

Rafael Crisosto is joining the Cardinal team to teach Sophomore Biology, Junior/Senior Environmental Science and Chemistry. We hope you'll welcome him if you see him on campus! We asked Mr. C some questions so you could get to know him a bit as the school year begins. 

Why did you want to teach at Cardinal?
The school focuses a lot on making connections with the students, and it has an amazing atmosphere.

How long have you been teaching?
This is my first year teaching.

What do you like about teaching science?
I love science because it teaches us about the world. Being able to understand how the world around us works and how we can strive to become more sustainable to continue to evolve with the changing world around us.

What is your favorite part of being a teacher?
Being able to make an impact in every student's life.

What is your ultimate goal as a teacher?
To teach students to understand the world and learn life skills they will use for the rest of their lives.

What do you hope students take away from your class this year?
How our world works and what role they play in it.

Fun Facts/Hobbies:
I am extremely excited to start teaching, and I really love to run!

My real endorsement of Cardinal Schools and its faculty and staff can be seen each morning when I hand them the one irreplaceable and most valuable thing in my life: my kids. No letter I write could be a greater endorsement than that simple act. I give them my kids, and I do it with a huge smile on my face because I trust them to do what they are most outstanding at: building our future.
