I was born and raised right here in Colorado! I'm what they call a TRUE 5th Generation Colorado Native which is rare. I love teaching students and adults how to stay healthy and strong for a Lifetime. I also enjoy teaching and coaching swimming. I am looking forward to a GREAT year in PE!

Here is what we are working on right now in P.E.
Don't forget to wear your tennis shoes on P.E. days! For your safety and comfort it is important to wear tennis shoes.

ALWAYS FOLLOW THE PAWS! Ponderosa Fitness Days!There will be days in PE and other Integrated Arts classes that our students will participate in what we call Ponderosa Fitness Days! We are supporting Cherry Creek's Wellness Program as well as HB 11-1069. On these days we exercise with different workout and fitness videos. Students are encouraged to wear clothing that allows for movement and keeps them cool (ex. shorts, t-shirts, jogging pants, etc.). Most importantly they need to wear tennis shoes for safety and comfort. They may also bring a Water Bottle filled with only water. Many of the videos we exercise with are available at stores like Target and Walmart or online at Amazon.com if you are interested in buying them for a family workout time. Please see Mrs. Weeks with any questions about our videos or Ponderosa Fitness Days! Ponderosa Field Day is Coming!![]() TBD - Please check back!
