Ninth-grade students meet with Wright to discuss symposium projects. All Math, Science and Technology Magnet Program participants must complete a year-long research project. "He's very dedicated, and cares a lot about students success," said ninth-grader Anna Roche.
Wright reviews material for an upcoming technology test with ninth-grade students in the Math, Science and Technology Magnet Program. In addition to teaching MST courses, he leads the Science Olympiad program, teaches an Advanced Placement computer programming class, serves as a volunteer coach for students in the State Science and Engineering Fair, and coordinates internships for students.
CHS teacher Ron Wright keeps a photo collage of Science Olympiad competitions in his classroom. The team, which he coaches, recently won first place at state, sweeping 18 of 23 events.
CHS junior Parker Liebe works out glitches with his state Science Olympiad project for the "robot arm" event. "As a Science Olympiad coach, Mr. Wright is pretty amazing," he said. "I can't even begin to describe how smart he is, and how much he brings to this group."
If you ask several different people at Camas High School to describe teacher Ron Wright, chances are their responses will be similar. Passionate. Dedicated. Patient. Sincere. A visionary. Kind.
These are just a few of the things that colleagues, administrators and students had to say about Wright, who serves as a Math, Science and Technology Magnet Program teacher.
