Hello.  My name is Chris Wright and I have been a high school math teacher at Central Lyon since 2000.  I teach Basic Geometry, Geometry, Algebra II, and AP Calculus.  I coach Boys' golf and 8th grade volleyball.  

When I am not teaching or coaching, I like to golf, travel, attend athletic events, and spend time with my wife and kids.

Central Lyon Girl Power 2025

3rd & 4th Grade Girls interested in building their leadership skills, making healthy choices, and developing positive relationships are invited to an after school program starting February 25 and continuing through May 13.

If you would like to sign up your daughter, contact Mrs. Christensen or Mrs. Van Veldhuizen.

Elementary students at Central Lyon are taught that our four core expectations are to Respect All, Offer Help, Accept Responsibility, and Reach Expectations (ROAR). Staff acknowledge students following those expectations by giving them “ROAR cards” to point out what they were doing well. The cards are collected in a tote by the office. The cards are counted and six ROAR cards are drawn to recognize students who have demonstrated our Central Lyon ROAR expectations during that month. These students are known as “Lion Kids of Character” and are awarded a certificate to thank them for demonstrating our core expectations. Congratulations to these Lion Kids of Character! Way to ROAR!

Congratulations to the January Kids of Character! Way to work hard and ROAR!

Here's a reminder of our student drop-off procedures. Below is a map to help illustrate those procedures.

Utilize Story Street from the North

• Each morning, families are asked to refrain from turning north on Story Street. This helps ease congestion and safety concerns for our students. Whether you are arriving from the east or west on 12th Avenue, please use Marshall Street to travel north. From 10th Avenue, families may enter Story Street heading south.

Drive & Drop

• Families are encouraged to utilize the Drive & Drop lane to the south of the Elementary/Middle School Office. Please pull forward as far as possible.

Drop Off Parking 

• If you should need to accompany your student into the building, please use the parking spaces north of the Elementary/Middle School office.

Street Parking

• Finally, parking on the east of Story Street is reserved for residents.

Thank you for your help following these procedures and keeping our students safe during the morning drop off. If you have any questions about these practices, please do not hesitate to contact Superintendent Brent Jorth.
