The Principia:
Middle School Athletics
Coaches' Profiles

The Middle School coaching staff consists of teachers currently teaching or coaching in our Principia P.E./Athletic department as well as individuals from off campus hired to coach a specific sport. Each of our coaches has experience within the sport.

 

Coaches working with the Middle School students will have a good knowledge of the sport they are coaching as well as a commitment to the development of each individual whatever skill level they have, providing platforms for character growth through meeting challenges, handling adversity and breaking down limitations. Understanding a team concept and learning to play roles on a team will be developed and emphasized.

Please feel free to contact them at any time.
