Dear WHS Community,
Rejoice! As we begin another school year together be assured your school newspaper The Lobby Observer is ready to share your news with the community and the world (see lobbyobserver.org).

Mr. Cullen, a History and Psychology teacher at Westborough High School didn’t always want to become a teacher. In fact he admits he “didn’t know what he wanted to be, just not a teacher”.
Interestingly, Mr. Cullen is an alum of WHS. He participated in sports as he was offensive left tackle for the football team and threw shot put and discus for the track team.
After high school, Mr. Cullen went on to a preparatory year at the Naval Academy in Newport, Rhode Island. At the Academy, Mr. Cullen says he was able to grow and have another year to decide what he wanted to do. He then went on to earn a degree in Psychology from Worcester State. He later earned another degree in History from the University of Prince Edward Island.
