Donation Tennis Shoes
If you have a pair of tennis shoes that you have outgrown that are in good shape, please consider donating them to the gym for students to borrow on days that they forget their tennis shoes.

The following has been added to the CTE parent/staff handbook:
Shoes
Appropriate shoes are suitable for walking in the halls and playing on the field and playground. No skate shoes, house shoes or bare feet are allowed. Tennis shoes are a must for Physical Education. If students do not wear tennis shoes, they will sit out of PE or walk during that time.
Please note that students that do not wear proper tennis shoes for PE WILL NOT get to participate. No backless tennis shoes, crocks, sandals or boots will be allowed.
The gym floor is getting worn down and we need to preserve it as best we can. If a new floor is required, the school district will come and replace the existing floor with carpet. An option that we at CTE do not want.

My teaching Philosophy
My primary goal as a physical educator is to provide quality physical
education to my students. Keeping quality physical education as my
desired goal, I always utilize the guiding principle "what is best for
kids"? I use this guiding principle in scheduling, planning lesson, and
units, ordering equipment, and personal interactions with students. I
continually emphasize and demostrate the following best practices in my
teaching: maximum participation, skill development, positive classroom
management, implementing the Colorado and National standards into
planning and lessons, including assessment activities, and successfully
integrating all students.
