Advisor:
Dustin P. Abrahamson

Hello, my name is Dustin Abrahamson and I am the enthusiastic new advisor for the Barque. This is also my first year at Bellevue High School and, since one of the main reasons I moved to BHS was to experience the rich, vibrant school culture, joining the newspapers feels like the perfect way for me to become a Wolverine. Before this I taught at Bellevue Big Picture High School for 6 years and received my BA and Masters from the University of Washington. In my free time, I enjoy reading, writing, studying history, going to museums, watching sports, and playing ice hockey. When I was in high school, I loved to write and was the sports section editor for my school newspaper so it feels like a fitting return to my roots. I am honored to be a member of the 2026-2027 Barque. Go Bellevue!
