What's up Mountain Lions!
My name is Mr. Gates. I graduated from Northern Arizona University with a Bachelors of Science in Education. I started with Mountain Ridge in Spring of 2021, and have been a science teacher at Mountain Ridge high school ever since. Originally from Victorville, California I have lived all around from the east coast to Okinawa, Japan. I moved to Flagstaff start college in 2016 and have stayed in Arizona since. I am super active, love hiking, camping, running, gaming, and being out in nature. I coach multiple sports at ridge:
Cross Country
Flag Football
Wrestling
Track & Field
If you have questions about any of those please reach out!
I am excited for another year at Ridge and look forward to many more.
