Certification:
Physical Education K-12
Philosophy:
I believe that physical education provides a unique opportunity to contribute to the overall development and well being of every student. It is my goal that students in my class are provided with a multitude of developmentally appropriate activities that include movement, fitness, sports, recreation/leisure activities and dance. As a physical education teacher, I feel I will broaden their exposure to sports and encourage them to develop a life-long love of active participation.

Rachel Sprouse
Certification:
Physical Education/Health K-12
Philosophy:
"I believe Physical Education is the root to success throughout a students life. By being physically fit and healthy a student proves to be more attentive to learn in class, has less absent days due to illness, and develops a knowledge base that will help lengthen their lifespan. My goal is to introduce the students to various activities that they will enjoy and be able to continue throughout their lifetime. By helping the students make healthy decisions you are helping them to know how to make healthy choices as adults."
