Serving others before oneself is a mantra we all know; yet, when it comes to Sean Fitzgibbon, the notion of service has transformed into action.

For instance, alongside Beta Club members, Mr. Fitzgibbon spent an entire weekend beautifying the exterior of the campus. Soon after, he reimagined the school’s trophy cases into nostalgic showcases of pride. What makes these examples powerful is that Mr. Fitzgibbon modeled the act of service for the students of RMS - an impression that has the power to last a lifetime. Beyond this, Mr. Fitzgibbon leads a rich classroom experience focused on the subject’s nuances and student growth, and is always willing to lend a hand to his fellow teachers.
