Mr. Valliere
I have been working at the Sullivan for the past 8 years as a mathematics teacher for grades 7 and 8. Over my 25+ year career, I have taught all levels of students. I firmly believe that EVERY student can learn and it is my responsibility to use several different strategies to ensure that each student has successes in learning math. I want all of my students to know I am more than just good at math and I truly care for each and every one of them in the hopes that they become better people after spending a year in my math class. I like my classes to be fun for all students as I get them to embark on their journey into Algebra.

Mrs. Galipeau
Hi my name is Ashley Galipeau and I am an 8th grade English teacher. I have been teaching at the Sullivan Middle School for 7 years, but this is my first year teaching 8th grade. I have a love of reading and hope to instill that in all of my students! In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my husband, and children, Sienna and Madison. Our favorite things to do are movie nights and travel and we love our Boston sports teams!

Mr. Clark
Hi, my name is Jim Clark. I am the 8th grade Special Education teacher. I have been teaching for a total of 13 years and this is my 6th year at the Sullivan school. I support students in Math and ELA classes. In my previous life, I was a Social Worker for the state of Massachusetts. I worked as a Social worker for almost 16 years. I have worked with the adolescent population for almost 30 years.
Most recently the Sullivan school was able to obtain the 21st Century Grant to enable us to provide an after-school program. I am pleased to be part of this program and will be teaching the cooking class on Tuesday afternoons. As kind of a “foodie,” I am excited to introduce students to the joy of cooking.

Mr. Purcell
Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Mr. Purcell and I am beyond excited to begin the new school year as an 8th-grade social studies teacher. History has always been a passion of mine and I’m looking forward to sharing that passion with the students here at the Sullivan!
I received my Bachelors of Science in History from Suffolk University in 2012 and received my Master of Education from Merrimack College in 2014. This will be my third-year teaching 8th-grade social studies at the Sullivan Middle School. Overall, I have been teaching for 8 years across two different districts in Massachusetts. I also coached a number of athletics teams, including Boys Varsity Soccer and Girls Basketball right here at the Sullivan Middle School. I have truly enjoyed getting to know my students, not only in the classroom but on the field as well. Outside of school, I am an avid New England sports fan. I enjoy cooking, traveling, and spending my summers at Newfound Lake.
I anticipate an exciting year ahead and look forward to getting to know the faculty, parents, and students at the Sullivan!
