Mr. Cantatore is currently in his 7th year as an educator. Prior to Pittsford Mendon, Mr. C taught 10th Grade English and AP Literature & Composition at Wheatland-Chili MS/HS. He takes pride in bringing his passion and enthusiasm to the classroom to engage students in meaningful learning and build lasting relationships with the students in his charge. Mr. C hopes that through the study of literature, students will not only broaden their own perspectives but also find themselves reflected in the stories of others.

When he's not teaching, Mr. Cantatore is often found performing on stage with his band, "The Breakfast Club 80's Tribute", at various live music venues throughout the Rochester area. Mr. C is also a HUGE fan of the Denver Broncos! (Sorry, Bills fans!)
