Science Department

Chris Liberti

This is my 6th year at BRHS. Before that I taught Middle and High School Math and Science in Rhode Island for 4 years.

I have a BS in General Science Education, BA in Math and MA in Secondary Science Education from the University of Rhode Island.

Outside of the classroom, I coach the sailing team for BRHS and Lincoln Academy and also run the summer sailing program at BHYC.

In my personal time, I really enjoy sailing, skiing/snowboarding, hiking, camping, making things and generally spending time with my wife, daughter and 2 dogs.

Lauren Graham

This is my 13th year at BRHS and my 12th year of full-time teaching. I have a degree in Biology from Colby College and an M.Ed. in STEM curriculum from the NASA Endeavor Program. Teaching is my second career after working in cancer research labs in both Boston and at Maine Med prior to moving back to this area. Outside of school, I love playing or watching most sports and geek out on all things NASA.

Sherrie Hersom

This is my 35th year of teaching in the district. I have taught for 28 years at BRHS and seven years at BRES Middle School.

I have a BS in Science with a focus in Pre-Med from UMaine Presque Isle, and a M.Ed. from U Maine Orono. I also have endorsements in Special Ed.(K-12) and Health/P.E. (K-12).

Being a science nerd with my students is a fun part of my day. I enjoy walks around town, reading murder mysteries, FBI thrillers, and psychological thrillers, kayaking, hiking, and spending time with family and friends.
