Cody Thorne growing up had a lot of family members and friends that went to SCHS so whenever he thought of coming here, he did.
“I wanted to join St. Charles High because it was where I went to school and I wanted to be able to give back to the school that I attended,” Thorne said.
Thorne always knew that he wanted to become a teacher and wasn’t able to get the placement he really wanted.
“Becoming an ISS teacher was not my initial plan, I wanted to try to find a PE job,” Thorne said. “However, I was not able to find a job. Whenever the ISS job opened up, I felt like it was a good opportunity for me to get into the district.”
Over the years, he has been watching his family go through the school district and it helped him get to where he is now.
“My parents and sister are all either teachers or going into teaching,” Thorne said. “It has definitely been nice having family members that work in the district. They have helped me to understand the way things run within the district.”
Thorne has some words of advice for SCHS students.
“I would tell them to be involved. Do whatever activities they want to do and have fun with it. From sports to clubs, find something you’re interested in and be a part of it.”
