Peek Into The Life of Bags

By: Hannah Nardella and Alyssa Prosperi 

Mr. Bagdasarian is a gym teacher at WHS, more specifically a pool teacher. He has his office in the pool room along with another teacher Mr. Turner. Bags has 3 children, all boys and two of which attend this school.

Coming up in a couple months he will have his 20 year marriage anniversary to his wife. For their honeymoon they went on a cruise to the Caribbean.

When asked what his biggest fear was, he was quick to answer with “The ocean” and we asked why. He told us how much he hates seaweed and is afraid of sharks so when in the water he stays extremely close to the shore to “Stay safe.” Although he has a fear of the ocean his favorite vacation spot is The Bahamas and even better than that, Atlantis. He’s only been there once but hopes he can enjoy the islands features a couple more times before he’s too old.

His favorite animal is one of the most basic, a dog, he has one, a goldendoodle named Bailey.

Before he was a teacher, he started college at Uconn and went there for three years, playing baseball for two of them. Then he moved onto CCSU for two years studying education for his undergrad and later earning his masters in education leadership at Quinnipiac University. He has been a P.E teacher for 21 years, before coming to Wethersfield he worked in East Hartford and Guilford for around 6 years.
