Greetings! My name is Sean Thornton and I am excited to be teaching Science at Cascade Public Schools. I recently retired from the US Army and Montana National Guard after 23 years of service. Some things I enjoyed in the Army, and some I didn't, but by far the most rewarding was serving as the Executive Officer of the University of Montana (Go Griz!) and Carroll College ROTC programs. It was then that the realization came to me how much I missed teaching, having taught Science previously at Geyser Schools and CMR in Great Falls. This is why I am thrilled to be coming to Cascade Public Schools. This is a community where I have deep roots. My mother was raised in Cascade and graduated a Badger. My grandparents lived a couple of blocks from the school and as a result, I spent many of my childhood summers roaming the streets of Cascade and the banks of the Missouri River. I grew up in Helena and graduated from Capital High School. After high school I bounced around between colleges, Gonzaga (Go Zags!) and Wheaton College in Illinois where I received my BA. I then spent several years traversing between Graduate School, fishing boats in Alaska, joining the Army, teaching Science, and fishing the Missouri every chance I could. With a family consisting of three children, I eventually chose a career in the Army. But now that my time with the Army is complete, I am thrilled to be returning to teaching here in beautiful Cascade Montana.
