Hello Parents,

Welcome back for a new school year! I am beyond excited to be here and embark on the newest journey God has laid out for me – teaching Physical Education!

I just wanted to send out a quick note about a couple things for Phy. Ed. class this year.

• As a safety precaution, students are required to wear tennis shoes for Phy. Ed. class. We want to prevent as many foot and ankle injuries as possible! So, if your child does not wear tennis shoes to school in the morning, please have them bring a pair with them to change into for class every day.

• I will be sending home monthly fitness calendars with the students. On these calendars are daily activity suggestions for things the students can do at home to help them stay active and promote a healthy lifestyle. Participation in these activities is not mandatory, but there will be a prize awarded at the end of the year for the class with the largest percentage of participation! All the students need to do to participate is do the daily activity (or write in a different activity of their choosing) each day, mark them off as they go, have it signed at the bottom, and return it at the end of each month!

Thank you in advance for your help with these two things – it is going to be a great year!

If you have any questions for me, feel free to send me an email at

God’s blessings,

Mrs. Leiding
