Mr. Matt Bay
I have been teaching science in the Ralston school district since 2015. As an educator, I am dedicated to furthering my own education. As a result, I am in the process of completing my master's degree coursework in education. Before teaching, I worked in retail, spending time as the youth shoe and cold weather footwear specialty shop manager for two years at Scheels before stepping down as I pursued my bachelor's in secondary education. I am married and love spending time with my wife Kinsey and step-sons Liam and Arik as often as I can. In November 2022, we were blessed to adopt my daughter Marlea, and she has been a constant source of joy for our family. I enjoy cycling, rock wall climbing, and Husker athletics. It is my goal to learn something every day and I strive to share that passion with my students.
