Pottsville Elementary School

Physical Education Tracy Gist

Hello and welcome to a wonderful new year. I have been teaching at Pottsville for the last 24 years and look forward to starting my 25th year with you and your children. Spending time with your child/children learning how to be fit and healthy and getting paid for it is a dream come true for me.

Your children may need you to remind them to wear their tennis shoes on their P.E. days and runners/walkers club days. Please put your child’s tennis shoes in their backpacks on those days if they choose to wear another type shoe to school. Boots, crocs, sandals and dress shoes are not safe for physical activity. We want your child to be able to comfortably participate in all the activities and receive the full benefits from the program.

Our administrators point out in the handbook, page 29 that a doctor’s note is required if a student is under doctor’s orders and can not participate in physical activities. The note should be specific in restrictions and duration.

I look forward to a fun filled year. If you have any questions, concerns or suggestions feel free to contact me or come by at anytime. Make it a goal to spend at least one day or 1/2 a day with your child this year at school.

Thank you,

Tracy Gist
