After-School Sports and Recreation
Throughout my career, I have coached and organized after-school sports and recreational events at many different levels. I was the Girl's Varsity Soccer Coach at Holy Cross High School in Bayside, Queens for three seasons. At my elementary school, I coach several before and after school programs including our very popular Building Our Kids for Success (BOKS) program and our school soccer team. I have also coached JV Girl's Softball, Middle School Girl's Basketball, Middle School Boy's Soccer, and Middle School Girl's Softball in the past.
As a physical education teacher, I truly believe in the importance of our students learning through movement. With the BOKS program, I have been able to offer several before and after-school programs to our school's third, fourth, and fifth graders. These programs always fill up fast and the students truly enjoy learning new games, exercises, and nutrition information. It is a wonderful program that I would highly recommend for any Physical Education Program.
During the 2019 school year, I started our school's first soccer team. We participate in District 25 inaugural soccer league. Our team practices once or twice a week after school and participates in soccer games during the school day. Soccer is a popular sport in our school community. Throughout the season I stress the importance of sportsmanship, integrity, and respect.
