Kurt Eck

Parents & Teachers Ambassador
Hometown: Danville, PA

With a foundation in nuclear science from his time as a Reactor Operator on the USS Truxtun, this educator brings a unique perspective to the classroom. Following his Navy service, he earned a Psychology degree from Bloomsburg University and worked in children’s mental health. He then dedicated ten years to fostering teenagers and seventeen years to teaching math and science at Alternative Education Programs. A recent career shift led him to a science teaching position at St. Joseph’s, a move he attributes to divine guidance. Outside of school, he has served as Camp Director for Camp Lavigne. He enjoys Steelers football, travel, and spending time with his grandkids.
