Why do I teach? As far back as my memory can take me, I have always been physically active. From recess, to organized sports, to gym workouts, being in motion has been a steady part of my life. I enjoy the challenges and health benefits that recreational and exercise activities produce. As a PE instructor, I am honored to have the opportunity to share my experiences in health & fitness and to teach its values to our future leaders. I intend to place challenging but attainable goals before them throughout most of the school year. Regardless of the task's degree of difficulty, I will always encourage them to say "I.C.A.N.T" instead of "I can't"
Information about PE at Louisville Academy
On PE days, it is recommended that our students wear tennis shoes. Considering the movements that are performed, it is best that each student has the proper footwear, such as tennis shoes, to perform various activities such as running, jumping, and agility exercises. Feel free to pack a pair of tennis shoes in your child's book bag so they change footwear for PE, and then they can switch back when class is over.
It is also recommend for our young ladies to wear shorts or solid tights.
