I am Jason Gates and I am beginning my 23rd year of teaching, all at CAC. I am teaching 7th grade Life Science and 9th grade Biology. After graduating from CAC in 1995 I attended Harding University, where I graduated in 2000. During my time at CAC I have been the baseball assistant coach, boys basketball assistant coach, and I am now the girls basketball assistant coach.

My wife Kim is a 2003 CAC graduate, and is a nurse practitioner. We have 3 boys: Cooper (7th grade), Cannon (5th grade), and Campbell (Kindergarten).
