Bio
JohnK Wright, V
Jeff was Head of the History Department at A+ Academy. His department had high scores in TAKS for Social Studies in the years I knew him. This is remarkable for a student population that was typically grade levels behind, and also included ESL and Special Needs Students. He also had his students involved in writing essays, and one of his students won a regional essay competition beating out much larger high schools. He also found time to serve as the Varsity Track Coach.
