Physical Education Teacher

Welcome to the beginning of a new school year!

I am thrilled to be teaching your children and look forward to getting to know all of Tehiyah families! This is a great time to emphasize the importance of physical activity in your child’s education which is vital to his or her health, wellness, and academic success!!!! Children should accumulate 60 minutes of physical activity per day.

My mission to expose students to a variety of skills, activities, sports, and games that they can enjoy for a lifetime, excel in, share with friends, and derive happiness from.

Looking forward to a great year!

Melissa
