Bailey Wright

Hello! My name is Bailey Wright, and I am beginning my 8th year here at Alburnett- my first year as elementary principal. My entire career has been at Alburnett, beginning as an elementary special education teacher, and two years as a Teacher Development Coach. This community, our Pirate families, and our dedicated staff have made this feel like home since day one! 

I grew up on a small farm outside of Jesup, IA, so I am happy to be back in a community-oriented district. I graduated from the University of Northern Iowa  in 2016 with a degree in elementary education and a minor in special education. I earned my master's degree from UNI in Educational Leadership in 2022. 

During my after school hours, I love to soak up time with my husband and toddler, Maren. She keeps us on our toes and is a constant reminder of the joys in life. I enjoy reading, a good cup of coffee, forever learning more about baseball (Go Cubs!), and traveling to national parks. We also live with our two rescue kitties that always bring a little extra sunshine to our days!
