Meet Matt Price, who joined us as a high school science teacher this school year! 🔬
He lives in Ames with his wife, Julie, and their three daughters: Annika (18), Anessa (13), and Addison (11). As a family, they love spending time outdoors, hiking, backpacking, kayaking, camping, and fishing together.
When he’s not cheering on his daughters at their activities, you’ll find Matt on the golf course or hanging out with the family dogs, Buddy and Ollie. 🐶
“Everyone from the students to the staff has been incredibly welcoming and supportive,” he says. “I am especially grateful for the positive and curious energy the students bring to the classroom every day.”
We’re so glad to have you on the team, Mr. Price! 🌟
