Zack Stranz

I grew up in Charleston and graduated from CHS participating in wrestling and soccer. My senior year my soccer team made it to the elite 8 in State! I played soccer and studied Graphic Design at Carthage College in Wisconsin. After graduation, I've lived in downtown Chicago, Minneapolis, and Nashville. I'm excited to back in Charleston and since 2021 I've been a PE teacher and Boys Soccer Coach at CHS. Now I'm teaching at Carl Sandburg, my old elementary, which is very special for me! I have an amazing wife, Sierra, and two stepsons Logan and Carson.
