This year John B. Wright had adopted AVID or Achievement Via Individual Determination philosophy to help encourage our students to reach towards our school mission and college. We will continue to focus on science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) and incorporating STEM across the curriculum--into social studies, language arts, music and even play. Wright students are always encouraged to be curious and explore their ideas. Teachers help children build confidence in their learning and set their sights on the future. Each morning at Wright, the children state our school's mission: “We are training future Arizona Scientists, Technologists, Engineers, Artists and Mathematicians.”
