Hello students and families! My name is Nick Tarpinian, and this is my third year teaching at Roosevelt. I was born and raised in St. Charles, but have lived in St. Louis for 8 years now. I have an older brother and sister, and am an uncle to one niece. I have always loved learning, science, playing games (board, card, and video), and I am a passionate advocate for many social justice issues. My spouse and I share our home with 3 dogs - one small, one medium, and one large.
