Meet MVR-III alum Garrett Alexander, Class of 2001. ๐
Garrett works in education in Piedmont, Missouri, where he coaches girls' basketball. He is proud to have been named Coach of the Year for the 2025-26 season.
Garrett says his time at MVR-III was shaped by amazing teachers and great coaches who taught him how to be a good person and give back to those around him. He also believes his education at Pacific High School helped prepare him for the future.
One of Garrett's favorite memories from MVR-III is winning the Borgia Tournament during his senior year.
His advice for current students: The world is a big place, so don't be afraid to follow your dreams. Your journey may take you to places you never expected or even imagined wanting to go. Keep following your dreams, and you may find yourself exactly where you're meant to be.
