Welcome! This will be my 9th year at CTMS. Not only do I teach Wellness
PE, but I also work with 7th/8th grade Volleyball, Basketball, and Track
athletes. I was also a student at CTMS, graduated from RRHS and attended
St. Edward's University. I enjoy being active myself, and hope to encourage
all my students to learn new activities, and enjoy PE.
Our program is designed to help students grow physically, socially,
emotionally, and mentally. Research shows that by the time children reach
the age of 14, exercise and eating habits are already formed; therefore, a
strong physical education program in the middle school years can make a
difference in forming positive health habits for a lifetime. With the
knowledge gained through participation in this course, students will have
the ability to develop their own physical fitness programs, make healthier
decisions concerning the care of their bodies, and find activities they can
enjoy for a lifetime.
