    Coach Tewers:
     
    Hello Sunset Ridge Hawks! My name is Jessica Tewers, most of you know me from First Grade. I have taught First Grade for 13 years, (11 of them at Sunset Ridge). When I had the opportunity to move into PE last school year and stay at Sunset Ridge, I knew I couldn't pass it up. I am so excited to be coaching PE during this school year.
     
    I have lived in Arizona most of my life, moving here when I was 8 years old. I have always known I wanted to be an Elementary school teacher and graduated from ASU West with my Bachelor Degree in Early Childhood. I started my teaching career at Park Meadows (2 years) and moved to Sunset Ridge, where I found my second home. I got my Physical Education endorsement 2 years ago and I am ready to put it to use.
     
    When I am not in the classroom. I enjoy spending time with my husband, Mickee, and our three boys, Brody, Troy & Nixon. All three of our boys play baseball and Troy also plays football, which means we are always running to practice or a game of some sort. They keep us very busy after school and on the weekends. I love being active and outside, usually hiking, running or playing outside with the boys, when we have free time.
     
    I am looking forward to this new adventure with Sunset Ridge students, where I can help them be challenged and successful with Physical Education.

    Coach Bodily: 

    Hi my name is Michelle Bodily and I am so excited to teach PE at Sunset Ridge. I worked as a sub this last year and enjoyed being with the students and staff at Sunset Ridge so much I jumped on the opportunity to teach PE when it was presented!

    I was born and raised in Utah and attended Salt Lake Community College where I played soccer. After earning my Associate’s Degree I transferred to Utah State University for my Bachelor’s Degree in Secondary Education, majoring in Physical Education with minors in Psychology and Health. I have recently added my Elementary PE Endorsement. I taught high school PE in Illinois for 4 years before taking a 12 year break to be a mom. While teaching I also coached boys and girls soccer, and after moving to Arizona in 2010, I coached girls’ soccer at Deer Valley High School for another 4 years.

    I have been married to my husband for 20 years, we have 2 daughters Leah and Kenzie that have attended Sunset Ridge since kindergarten. Some of the things I enjoy in my spare time are sports (playing and watching), escape rooms, camping, traveling, playing the drums and watching a good movie.

    I am excited to teach PE and to help students at Sunset Ridge gain confidence in themselves and a love for Physical Education.
