Chad Radock has taught history at Fitchburg High School for four years. Previously, he taught in Gardner, Clinton and Leominster. Chad says, "I enjoy teaching, although I do not believe that the public schools are funded properly." That belief led him to join the Leominster School Committee from 1998-2004. He served as committee policy chair and secretary. Most recently, he served as the Massachusetts Association of School Committees' Central District Vice Chairman.

Chad is a member of the Massachusetts Democratic State Committee, as well as the chair of his ward committee. He has been active in Democratic politics for more than a dozen years.
